Geat Album that should get more Airplay
The current band sounds terrific and their new album is Great. I saw REO's performance on "Soundstage" and was transported back to the late 70's and early 80's. I particularly liked the title cut "Find Your Own Way Home" and absolutely love "Dangerous Combination" I wish this album would have more publicity because it is better than much of the garbage out today.

Now I am not saying all of todays music is bad, but this album warrants much more attention and recognition. Its great to see Kevin Cronin, Bruce Hall and Neil Doughty still jammin together like in the classic days.


Good inspiration lasts forever!
It was a really nice surprise since I was not following the band after the
"Building the Bridge" album and haven't learnt about a new release. I got this REO's album last week.

I've been a REO follower since late 70s and have every single REO record since the very first one. I must confess that even not all tracks in the FYOWH album are 5 stars in my personal taste of REO, it has some powerful tracks.

Is not fair to judge Kevin Cronin vocals, this guy has my respect to be such a poet and to express all those feelings through an always delightful voice tone that take you inside the lyrics of any song.

REO reached all the highs of its career with the songs and voice of Cronin. And this gentleman can delivers still. I will fired his present hairstyler, however. In some pictures he looks like and old lady. Sorry Kevin.

In the album there are different rithms, not usual on REO songs and that's refreshing. It is not only meat and potatoes rock and roll. Bryan Hitt brought some new flavors on the baseline of songs. I have liked Bruce Hall playing since he entered the band, Neal with simple but beautiful Keyboard layers and the more aggressive guitar playing of Amato is a nice blending.

If you are a REO fan or just want to be touched with a nice and melodic story of love and life, give this album a try.

Cheers Guys.

Glad to hear from the boys of Champaign, IL.
All are excellent!! Welcome back, boys! It's really good to hear from you again. I started listening to these guys in the late 70's, growing up 45 miles from them in central Illionois, then saw them in concert twice, have "our song" with my wife "Can't Fight This Feeling", and now find this awesome contemporary album from them, with stellar hits "I Needed To Fall", which sounds like REAL 80's REO material, "Another Lifetime", "Everything You Feel" and "Let My Love Find You". Would love to see you in Richmond, VA!.


I Like it
I find myself putting this one back in my cd player more often. A friend loaned me this and Journeys new cd and I like this one better. I watched Reo's performance on Soundstage and thought it was great. I couldn't believe how good they sounded. Dave Amato is a fine guitar player and Kevin Cronin has written a good batch of songs here.


Great comeback effort from REO!
REO's Find Your Own Way Home is a return to form for the band. After the previous two studio CD's in the 1990's I thought this band was finished. No, it is not "Hi Infidelity", but it is a great CD from start to finish. Even without the Live Disc and the Bonus DVD it is still worth the money. The CD starts with "Smilin' in The End" which finds the band rocking harder than they have in years. The singles Find Your Own Way Home and I Needed To Fall (the former a midtempo track and the second a ballad) both hit the top 25 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary Chart. Dangerous Combination (My favorite) and Another Lifetime are both about relationships that were not meant to be. Run Away Baby is a fun track and Let my Love Find You ends the CD on an uplifting and positive note. The only track on the album I skip is Born To Love You that the bass player sings. REO has crafted a set of songs that people can relate to and I think the band will be including many of these tracks in their live set for years to come. How many new tracks will bands like Journey, Styx, or Def Leppard leave in their set list three years from now? My guess, not many. For a great new release by a classic rock band pick up this CD and Loverboys's "Just Getting Started" disc. .
