Great, Great, Great. Not only the song, but the band. I love almost every song they made. My favs are - I Don't Want To Lose You, That Ain't Love, Don't Let Him Go.

never really dug REO, except for the song "Keep On Lovin' You". i have a soft spot for ballady arena rock songs.

and we all know that "Lady" by Styx is the greatest arena rock song of them all.

The original Lady was much better than their remade version. Unfortunately the remade version is the one you hear most often.

They're some of the most inventive musicians in the business when it comes to naming albums; who can't enjoy titles like You Can Tune a Piano But You Can't Tuna Fish and Wheels Are Turning?

Anyone know or have the early REO Speedwagon 70's albums? I heard that they weren't as poppy as when they hit the charts in the early 80's.
