10/10

um Am instead of A, but that doesn't sound much different distorted, other than that, it's the best cover of the solo I've seen so far, great job on that and great job overall.

[sageguitar70]

@johanlaurasia Thank you!

[GAFB1978]

Now that's the way it's done, Paul and Marshall supporting the home team, excellent cover especially on the high-end leads... way to go...

[samsquanch67]

Nice work!! Great song.........

[Cnax0r]

Can you pleas make a tab for the SOLO:D

[xGunSanRoseSx]

i may be wrong but just puttin it out there, turn the pick-ups to just the front one during the solo for better tone, and instead of sliding back to the E. flip the switch back to the rear one and just go straight to the E & continue the song..

[rhikdavis]

What are the three chords after "keep this in mind".....The yoohoo shirt rocks.

Good job.

[sageguitar70]

@rhikdavis Should be G, F# then E. Thanks for checking it out!! Best thing about YooHoo is that it lasts forever!!

[storminthedistance]

great song..... great cover... only thing is i think you could have used a few extra frets on the solo...

[sageguitar70]

Yeah I could have. Gary is the master of those high string bends!!!

[XelaXor]

@sageguitar70 actually im pretty sure he has a 22 frets guitar lol. Makes those last 2 notes on the solo easier to nail. I know on my les paul I need to bend the hell out of the string to get that last note.

[sageguitar70]

@XelaXor I know....that last note is a real bitch!

[XelaXor]

@sageguitar70 Thanks for replying. Whats the tabs for the transitions between verses? Like at 0:23 - 0:25 before "and I know the neighborhood?

[gkoz791]

great song, nice job here, really nice guitar sound.. and good work bending those high notes during the solo! 5*

[sageguitar70]

@gkoz791 Hey thanks a million for checking out my videos!! Rock on!!

[ACobra289]

Nice job man.

[jimdandysback]

I agree with you with Gary's bending gift. I can't reach the final note of that solo to save my life. So, I improvise. I'm not of a lead player to begin with. BTW, great job.

[sageguitar70]

Thanks for watching!! Rock on!!!

[popitypops]

A Les Paul on a Marshall; does it get any better than that?

[sageguitar70]

Hell no!! I messed around for years before I finally figured it out!

[TheStankinator]

One of my favorites. Nice job.

[MyTwangyGuitar]

Another fantastic job! Maybe if I learned some REO my wife could tolerate my playing. You really nailed this one to the wall.

Man, I gotta stop watching your vids or I'm going to wind up with a Les Paul! *****

[sageguitar70]

LOL!  Thanks man!

[KCChiliPepper]

kick ass job.. nice song choice!

love me some REO and some

sageguitar70!

[ezymk69]

Great Job and I wish I could play like that! Be kinda cool if the original music wasn't so loud, so I could hear more of your playin' Thanks for postin!!

[Dicedrum]

Awesome job with this classic break up song :-) Took me back there . Rock on man!

[LivinInSin4]

great cover man, love it.

[governedbyneptune]

Yeah, baby..I was smiling before I even made it to your page, Sage..lol I knew that this would be good.

Kickass, man.

[sageguitar70]

LOL! Thanks man! I appreciate it!

[MarkusGitarre]

This the sound I´m searching! You´ve got it! 5! It makes it a little bit more country! great

[icitnow]

I like this version a lot! Your tone is great-crunchy! I like Gary too! When he left-REO were not so good imo. My all time favorite of REO's was Keep on Running. I loved Richrath's playing on that one! That LP tone and sound came out so well in that one.

[kingemerald1]

right on sage bro ! gary is the bomb. damn good cover and sharp azz paul. man, gary was one of the baddest american guitar heroes during the 70's. that last solo on "back on the road" gives me chills. also " sing to me". that is my # 1 reo jam. great work on the solo too bro. keep riding that storm out dude !!

[sageguitar70]

Hey King! Thanks for checking it out! I had the pleasure of seeing Gary's band after he left REO here in KC in the late 80's at the old uptown theatre. Man that guy could play! His solo act was a lot more hard rock than REO. His string bends were incredible! Take care bro!

[manchiloco]

great cover man!

i love that guitar,i would like to have one!

[korgrandi]

Your sound is awesome again. Just great!

[fourty5mag]

Nice crunch cords, way to pull out that lead!!!

[foreverand6days]

You just rock man.Great job.Two records every Chick had when I was a Teen are REO High in Fidelity..And Meatloaf Bat Out of Hell.certain songs on them make me think of certain people if that makes sence.

[sageguitar70]

Hell yeah man! I know exactly what you are talking about! Thanks dude!

[sageguitar70]

Thanks a million for watching! I will!

[warmachine169]

Nice cover Sage. Never heard this song before. Sounds good. 5/5 \,,/

[sageguitar70]

Thanks man! Do yourself a favor and check out REO Speedwagon. Gary Ritchrath is one of the best guitar players ever! He has a very distinct style.

[fly124]

Damn Sage...you are putting out some awesome vids with the great hits of the 80's!! Perfect playing and tone! As always with you..5 stars all the way!! Btw...FIRST!!! LOL.

[sageguitar70]

WOW thanks man! These are the songs that I really love! REO is one of the best live bands ever! Rock on Man!
