Thanks for this! Going to listen to the song!

Thank, Mr ANNO, BYE!!!㊗㊗㊗

Robert wouldn’t stoop that low to sing for a mediocre 80s hair band….

As a HUGE Lifelong Led Zeppelin Fan and a Devoted Van Halen Fan, this would be a VERY BIG HOOT, and would sell like Fresh Hot Cakes!!! And YES, ask Jimmy Page, too!!! I'm salivating!!!

Alex is an amazing person and drummer

For those who says that Kevin is doing the same thing to Bruce as he did with Gary, not true. Gary is a very underrated guitar player. He can really shred but back in the late 80's, Gary wouldn't stop his partying ways while the rest of the band stopped doing that to get healthy but Gary wouldn't stop so Kevin had no choice but to fire him from the band. As with Bruce Hall goes, that is something I really don't agree with. Bruce has been cleared by his doctors to go back on tour but Kevin says that Bruce can't perform to the level fans expect. I don't think the fans would care if Bruce was sitting playing bass. I wouldn't care in the least! I just wish they would have done a farewell tour. Maybe invite back Neal Doughty who retired from touring last year, bring back Alan Gratzer and even maybe Gary's son. Go out with a bang instead of just ending it like they are.

Great review! Hoping they get to the Orlando area again soon

Love to see Plant do it.

Great, insightful review.

No Big Iron? Hypnotize? My fav GD guilty pleasure, France? Nolt, you got your blinders on….lol.

💥Shooting Stars /LAST CHANCE👈🏼 & Zeps KASHMIR 👆🏼 aaah ! sO GOOD

Crazy thanks for the info!

Wow! I'm surprised that none of the other guitar related channels haven't picked this up yet! I just saw Jake on Dave Friedman and Mark Huzanskys' Tone Talk live stream last Tuesday. Jake seems like one helluva nice guy.

You are making amazing video content. I just watched the video and your video quality is appreciable. I am so impressed by your content, I was analyzing your channel and noticed that You are struggling with video views and video ranking. May I share some tips on how you can achieve your goals?

F’d up!!!!

What about Martin Barre?? You seem to gloss over the fact that he is one the most underrated guitarist. Believe me I've seen him play.

Such a shame that "rock" doesn't get much media attention these days. New albums by Eric Clapton, Dream Theater, Jon Anderson, Michael Schenker, Judas Priest, Magnum, Deep Purple, Blue Öyster Cult, Black Country Communion.. So many. Hard to find new fans when it's never played anywhere. Good review!

FUCKING SEPTICS INACCURATELY GIVING THE HISTORY OF A BAND WHOSE NAME THEY CAN'T PRONOUNCE ... THAT WHAT'S UP. YOU-SPEWED ALLOWS TOTALLY OFFENSIVE DRIBBLE TO BE PUBLISHED AND THEN DEMAND WE BE RESPECTFUL. FUCK RIGHT OFF YOU VACUOUS SEPTIC CUNTS. THAT'S MORE RESPECT THAN LOWLIFE FILTH DESERVE.

This review makes me want to listen to the album….well done Nolt!

Brazil

Gary Richrath was the only reason to see the band. Kevin’s voice makes my stomach hurt. Always has.

Great ranking, the Mahavishnu Orchestra are my all time favourite band. Here’s my ranking based on my personal favourites: 1) Apocalypse (1974) 2) Between Nothingness & Eternity (1973) 3) The Inner Mounting Flame (1971) 4) Visions Of The Emerald Beyond (1975) 5) Birds Of Fire (1973) 6) Inner Worlds (1976) 7) Mahavishnu (1984) 8) Adventures In Radioland (1987)

Boc is such a unique band. Amazing they are still going for after 50 years

Maybe it’s time they packed it in! You can only keep changing band members and recycling hit songs on tour for so long. Classic rock and legacy acts are guilty of staying together for too long just to keep whoring tour cash! 💰

Thanks for the great review! Glad to hear Eric was sounding great and in good spirits!

Bruce's first real band was the one I helped to form in Champaign Illinois in 1970 called Feathertrain. We recruited Bruce who was still in high school and had to get his parent's permission to play with us, not to mention that he was underage at the clubs we performed at. I quit the band at the end of 1970 to concentrate on my pre law studies and was replaced by Gary Rithcrath, who we auditioned backstage in Peoria where he showed up with his Les Paul and no amplifier> So we couldn't really hear him but his hands were a blur. Gary left in late 1971 to join REO , which was the other popular group in Champaign. Both groups were booked by Irving Azoff who later became the manager of the Eagles and helped to promote REO nationally. Bruce then joined after the original bass player, Greg Philbin, left. I suspect, but don't know for a fact, that the earlier members may have had some type of revenue sharing arrangement so they weren't just being paid as sidemen, and that may have been a factor with Kevin, who holds most of the song writing copyrights, to go out on his own.

I was there, very good review. I’ve averaged 3 shows per year since 1973, BÖC still brings it!

He played a small venue here in CAMDEN SC called the Beavers Den. Tell you what, dude rocks... Great musicians around him to boot..

Norm Lear replaced Alan Gratzer Then Bryan Hitt replaced Lear after a short time.

I mean Molly Tuttle

5 position all-star, incredible

BYE! ✌️👲

I've been an REO fan since a friend turned me on to them in the late '70s, and I've always loved Kevin's songs and for the most part his voice in the band. I got to see them back in those days before the ballads, and Kevin could hold a crowd like no other frontman: and you couple that with Gary's amazing guitar work, and you had a band that was a "must see" live act. The band, though, has not been the same since Alan went into retirement and then Kevin and Gary parted ways leaving Kevin as the primary musical voice in the band. Once Neal retired, I think the writing was on the wall as far as how much longer the band would carry on. This latest thing with Bruce not being allowed to come back is the final nail in the coffin, so-to-speak. All I can say, as a longtime fan is, if Kevin ever meant any of the lyrics he's written over the years, he should step forward and be a man with some sort of integrity. Again, as a fan, I do not claim to know what all has gone on behind the scenes over the years: but I do believe in artist integrity: and if he is anything like his lyrics portray, then now is the time to make any wrongs right. His ego should not be affected at all. Many of us longtime fans recognize his voice, as the voice of REO: and we love his songs; just like we love Gary's guitar, Neal's keyboards, Alan's drumming, and both Gregg and Bruce's bass playing. Not taking anything away from Dave and Bryan, who have spent the last 34 years keeping the music going: I respect those guys and love to hear them play as well. I am just speaking of the classic lineups from '76 thru '88. Dave and Bryan are as much of the REO family/history as anyone; just like Terry Lutrell and Mike Murphy. I just wish Kevin would, as the song goes, "drop that old disguise."

Why do you keep popping up instead of the album play?

nice tribute

Thoughts and prayers to his wife and family ! May he rest in peace 🙏 🪦 😌

Traurig war und bleibt ein feiner kerl❤😢

Comes a time

VERY SAD NEWS BUT YOUR MUSIC WILL ALWAYS LIVE ON, REST IN PEACE, I AM IN TEARS ❤

Say goodbye to the man with that twinkle in his eyes, the smile, that voice that gave Janis her Bobby McGee, the one who sang 'Help me make it Through the Night & Sunday morning coming Down'. Admired by Cash & Dylan, stalked by Janis & Babs, but never snared. The Highwaymen drop another Golden leaf from their tree. 🍂 Farewell Kris, we'll still hear your voice, long after your sun went down. 🌅🕊️🌞

Sad news. RIP to a legend.

Great singer, will be missed...love his music❤❤❤❤❤

MEANS WILLIE NELSON WILL LIVE FOREVER THEN JUST LIKE KIETH RICHARDS WILL

RIP Kris Kristofferson!

Even Neil is not playing that well.

going to see the in Madrid next month, saw Finn and couple of times a good 20 years ago in San Francisco but never them under the Crowded House moniker. Can't believe they now have just as many records out after their big split than they did before now....

Sacramento Athletics here we come

It also happened to me😊

It happens to all singers
