I love REO-They used to play for free at lunchtime on the Quad at UI-they played for about 3 hours opening for Sly & the Family Stone because Sly was wasted---
Mejor REO hubiera seguido con este estilo...es muchisimo mejor que su trilladas canciones... unas iguales a las otras. Good Little Queenie, much better than others...
Almost 40 years since this came out, Wow! First time I ever heard this I was a 10 old 'little brother' in my sister's delta 88. This album is the epitome of 70's rock and roll. Thanks sis for turning me on to the right kind of music and thanks danmilam11 for posting. Flash Tan Queen please!
Great remake of Little Queenie. Boots Randolph was one of the best on the sax and he showed it and Neal wasn't too shabby on the keyboards as well. I was in Evergreen Colorado in the early 1980's in a bar. Neal came up on stage and played with the band. Good times!
@DONNANDMARY Of all the versions of this song, NONE BETTER. Even Mr Berry gets goose bumps when this is cranked up loud. Boots performed on the studio cut by a rare coincidence. Saw the band play it live more than twenty times in the 70's and early 80's. No sax, but Gary was there - WOW!! Also....is there a better rock album than REO TWO? Champ-bana talent, catch it.
@scottishjones This has to be their best album! I remember hearing that 8 track play over and over in my Dad's Ford Galaxy 500 convertable. I miss the times and the music. Do not get me wrong, I like ALL the era's of REO. I prefer Gary playing though.
I just figured out how to post a comment that isn't a reply. But I gotta go now to flip over and gently drop the needle on side 2. Can't wait to hear Flash Tan Queen.......

This is the REO I saw in concert in 1975! Real rockers! Then they got all sugary and sappy, and I stopped listening.

REO 1 and 2 were great records, still sounds good and rocks, then REO changed just like we do over the years. Rock on...............
