My favorite REO tune ever! I am trying to find the live version of 157 Riverside Avenue. The one from A Decade Of Rock And Roll, if someone has it, PLEASE post it!
i am a confirmed REO hater, to me they represented crappy eighties pseudo rock pop drivle.... that said, this is a one of my favorite songs of all time! probably top 100...
@Rhoxie14 I know, what i was trying to say, was that to me anyway, bands like reo, styx, the babys, post 1976 journey, were formerly good bands, and always had some good songs, but they got so commercial, and overproduced...hey they got rich following a formula... good for them, music is a matter of taste anyway, i love golden country, and richrath is a great guitarist, i just think that most their late 70's, early 80's stuff is crap, just my opinion...
