they were good, i still like most of their music. kevin cronin used to visit his brother in my hometown where his brother was a meteorologist for awhile and then became a school teacher. they're really very ordinary people.

I actually took a date to an REO concert in 80. What a waste of money the concert sucked. Try Deep Purple or Blue Oyster Cult they have a little more to their music. REO was ok, but it was easy to fall asleep to.

REO was large in the 80's, and are now touring w/ Styx. The original lineup included a guitarist named Gary Richrath, who was one of the most unerrated but excellent axemen of the time. In my humble opinion, "Ridin' the Storm Out" is their opus...

Yes they were a good ballad rock band. But they played lots of time "Can´t fight this feeling" on the radio, that makes me bored

Some of their songs are brill. When i was poor i brought my boyfriend a copy of thier cd, Hi infidlity. He said "who?" Keep on loving you and take it on the run are probably ones youd recognise if you would do any.

Man I remember thinking they were good. Haven't listened to them in years though. And I don't even think I'm all that old!
