Hey, Jamel, thanks for all the listens. "Roll with the Changes" from REO is a good one, "Take It on the Run," and "Time for Me to Fly." So, getting back to the Andrews Sisters era and a bit beyond, you have to check out the Benny Goodman version of "Sing, Sing, Sing" and Louis Prima's "Jump, Jive, and Wail." If you've never heard the Staples Singers, "I'll Take You There" is iconic, and "Let's Do It Again." You might like Bachman Turner Overdrive "Takin' Care of Business" and "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet." Check out some Cream "White Room," "Tales of Brave Ulysses," "I Feel Free," "I'm So Glad." I'll stop there for now. Don't mean to overwhelm; it's just hard to get your ear when you've become popular.

REO Speedwagon is an iconic group from my youth i had the opportunity to bring my son to see them when they came back to our area a couple years ago. He just loved seeing them . The last time they were in our area was way back when they first started out with the group Canned Heat. My brother who was 2 years older than me got to see them then and now my son had the honor of seeing them first hand. Great music from a great group also a great reaction. PEACE OUT.

I interpret this song to be about a man finally deciding to pursue the girl he knows is The One for him.He's been dating others ("and even as I wander, I'm keeping you in sight")but he knows in the back of his mind she is definitely the one he should marry and settle down with ("it's time to bring this ship into the shore,and throw away the oars,forever").

I met my friend Dave in high school when I was 15.. I really loved him. When I was 20 years old I gave him this song it was a 45 record to finally tell him how I felt. We remained just friends and are still friends 42 years later. I knew I wanted him in my life no matter what. Thanks for the reaction and memories.

@@johncopple6479 I'm right there with you on listening. After all they were a pretty much local band, from Champaign/Urbana, IL. I looked it up. I knew they were named after a truck I always thought it was a Drag racer built on a truck chassis, but found that REO was the initial for the designer. Something new every day.
