Electric Blue by Icehouse You got this

[@dirkpittthegreat4559]

Excellent. Love it...LLB...THE VERY BEST!!!!!!!

[@paulj4463]

How is it possible that one band can so perfectly cover so many other fabulous bands? I mean each band they cover were top artists of their day yet LLB has the unique ability to replicate each one…, perfectly. Simply amazing. Needless to say I’m a fan.

[@willscott5841]

Dedication times discipline… 💪🏼

[@cayde-6.0]

lol they piss excellence!

[@wolfgangweingarten626]

They are not your typical "band". They are a collaboration of musicians dedicated to reproducing studio covers of all genres. Been following for years now.

[@phillipsexton6099]

You nailed it just like they do.

[@davemachoukas6175]

Talent😅

[@jimmymiller77]

Listen up folk's. Wonder what real music sounds like ?? Just listen to these guys. No Autotune, Just real talent. God bless you all, Jim

[@SigMendelsson]

Are you sure? I'll owe them an apology if not, but my ears - and the online pitch sensor I just used - suggest otherwise.

[@SurferJoe46]

Whomever is running your board ---- put a leash on him and don't let him get away! You're all great musicians --- but the mix is fantastic --- voices where they belong and the solos come out clear and "standing" 'way up front! Kudos!

[@paulfrick1799]

Not just the mix. Super well produced. Tasteful effects, respect for the original and impeccable judgment for tone.

[@kevincorsa2664]

I totally agree!

[@lindabergman3127]

Facts 😂

[@lindabergman3127]

This is powerful 💥💥💥💥💥

[@alarmfannh]

A tribute to Gary that it takes two Les Pauls to equal his one. These guys are unbelievable!

[@martinvannostrand1]

And two singers to equal Cronin's pipes. Just kidding...what a great cover.

[@buckhorncortez]

Except if you do it in a studio and multi-track, then you can have as many guitars as you want to record...

[@tgyeti]

@@buckhorncortez This is the reason. Yes, Gary was incredible, but his solos on the record are clearly 2 different takes, they overlap in a few spots.

[@vestel777]

I agree. What a blazing tribute to the Late Gary Ritchrath.

[@alarmfannh]

@@tgyeti except on his live performances, like these guys.

[@russellcherry3288]

This band is so unbelievably good with all the great music of the 70s

[@johnb7889]

Musicians like these will be the ones who keep rock n roll alive after the original artist are gone for future generations to enjoy.

[@lindabergman3127]

With my Bose I feel like I’m at a Reo concert again 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@michaelmccullough7779]

I'm a HUGE Speedwagon fan, and damn I'm shocked how they were able to get their guitar tones to match Gary's tone so close! I loved how the boys split the vocal duties as well!! Jessica came busting in the place with her vocal harmonies as well. Damn fine job to everyone. I can't stop watching your videos!!! I just found you guys three days ago and I'm hooked like a crackhead in Harlem!

[@aapex1]

It's unnatural and should be BANNED! Over my dead body!!!!!!!!!!!! My all-time favorite song and constant earworm since like, 1979? I F'n LOVE these folks and am SOOOOO jealous.

[@lindabergman3127]

I know that's right 👍😍👏👏👏👏

[@itguy1560]

I'll have to say they do a credible job...but...I went back and listened to Gary's solos on the original and he has a bit more bite on that Les Paul of his. It's hard to recreate someone's tone exactly and Gary was a very talented guy with a sound of his own.

[@perfectfan2006]

wow i thought the guy played great but just did not have the gary tone dialed in. gary kicked the mids very aggressive way of playing lots of scratch and slide mixed in with each change .. one trick i know is gary liked to set a wha pedal about 1/2 way when he wanted over the top he just clicked it on then just backed out of it real smooth almost could not tell he even used it

[@itguy1560]

@@perfectfan2006 there are several other guitarists that use that trick. Eric Clapton does that, as well as Mark Knopfler of Dire Straights.

[@MrBillmechanic]

jessica is amazing!!! her clear and beautiful vocal power makes this piece shine!!!!!

[@rolfsvensson5777]

Indeed! She is like a cartoon! So alive!!!!!!

[@kentonkirkpatrick5225]

This looks like a lot more fun than golf.

[@buckeyerick5646]

Especially when I am suck at golf. No frustration hear or getting mad and throwing the club down. Listening to music is soothing and so much better for the ❤ lol!

[@teresasmith9687]

I simply can not get enough of this tribute band

[@scooterbuck7501]

I am absolutely blown away by these people. Unreal talent.

[@belshbelsh6962]

I have not one musical bone in me. But I know when something is good, and my word, this is good.

[@actionreactionman1]

I miss Gary Richraths playing. No one played like him. Great cover.

[@LexingtonLabBand]

We agree!

[@robertjaugustjr]

So underrated! He played with 🔥🔥🔥!!!!

[@mikeb9396]

I always wondered how Richrath played the overlapping leads like that. Not Eve he was that fast, and he was about the fastest I have ever heard.

[@robertruth3281]

Amen. Richrath was horribly underrated...at least I think. A true bad-ass on Les Paul.

[@artheriford]

@@robertruth3281 He got such a bad rap after they did " Hi Infidelity" and "Keep On Loving You". Gary was one of my earliest guitar influences when I heard "Live. You Get What You Play For" as a 10 year old. His guitar and pickups always sounded "hot" to me. RIP Gary. No one talked with their guitar the way you did!

[@johnadams5689]

Just straight up KICKASS ROCK AND ROLL, the way is was meant to be heard.

[@lindabergman3127]

Yes❤🔥☄️⭐️🌟⚡️✨

[@user-rt7vl9ky3r]

Loved hearing this at the RNC. So fitting for what the country is going through and just happened.

[@jackmundo4043]

This band is a gift to all music lovers. Amazing.

[@merlejones3561]

Don't know whether tuh laugh or cry . I hear anything from this album I'm 23 ... Turned 70 this mo. And Im still as young as I feel ... 💥

[@SlickMopar]

This is one talented band that needs a record contract 👍

[@palmerjohnson4982]

The backing vocals are PERFECT!

[@Davelakful]

I'm an old REO fan. Probably seen them live 50 plus times. Your keep on rolling group singing part got me emotional😂

[@lindabergman3127]

Seen them 2 or three times feel like I’m there again 😂

[@MiThreeSunz]

Mike has an incredible voice but was super impressed when I heard Tom sing. REO isn’t the easiest to cover well, but these guys and the band did REO proud!

[@LexingtonLabBand]

Many thanks Phil, we greatly appreciate the kind words!

[@markd8469]

sounds a bit like Kenny Loggins

[@user-silverfox22]

Absolutely the best cover band ever!!

[@rolfsvensson5777]

Keep on Keep on~~~ And beloved Jessica!

[@bobxoneill]

OMG I can't believe how singing "keep on rollin'" sounded like the REO live version, then the keys and back to guitar...just all sounded amazing

[@jimevans5632]

Piano player expressions are priceless! Almost looks like playing the keys in his sleep.

[@dickfrenulum1630]

Or he just did a dime bag of H.

[@leifhietala8074]

"Oh, hey, a piano." "Cool."

[@MiThreeSunz]

Zoned right out

[@tgyeti]

@@dickfrenulum1630 not cool

[@forbertd1]

That is one very difficult song to play on keys. Takes a ton of concentration. He did it fabulously !!!

[@Patriotforever32]

Dale you killed it! Amazing cover.

[@colinc3284]

The best part are those backup singers!! Wow!!! Great job ladies!🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@danjaquez1379]

I was diggin' on the intro guitar lick and saw Ms. McKenney jumpin' around, having a great time in the background, way cool! Lol Keep it up! Thanks!

[@michaelgates5323]

Great drummer!

[@scotthayes914]

Awesome seeing Marty jamming with yall

[@matthewcoddington2389]

This is magnificent. Absolutely top shelf. Well done.

[@Limbwalker1000]

@LexingtonLabBand ---- I just wanted to say that I think you guys are fantastic....!!! This is my favorite song by REO.....!!! Simply AMAZING...!!! Dont stop rockin' guys..!! Thank you

[@krisorendorff]

Great driving down the highway song....

[@smootmusic1]

Unbelievable!!! I just became a Lexington Lab Band fan!!

[@johnjohnson9093]

The younger keyboard player really liked the 60s.

[@palmerjohnson4982]

I'm pretty sure that He voted for Pedro.

[@StratmanDarrell]

I sell insurance and play guitar but these people kick ass. Everyone is top notch. My new favourite band.

[@innercynic2784]

Gotta give the production gang major kudos. No matter how good the musicians may be the ones running the board can make or break you

[@lthomas63]

awesome job all of you! 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

[@stevenshepherd5566]

That is one of my favorite songs!! You all have a GIFT!! Thank You LORD for letting me hear this!!!

[@LexingtonLabBand]

So glad you liked it, we have a catalog of almost 200 songs on our KZbin Channel. Subscribe and check them out!

[@krrrruptidsoless]

Makes you realize how tight reo speedwagon was Like a pro skier nailing a black diamond mogul run

[@Doug4422]

Oh, now this is music to my ears. REO is one of the best bands to come out of the Midwest (Champaign, Illinois), and being from the Midwest myself (southeast Iowa), I'm always stoked when they play, and y'all did it right. This is a good tribute to the Late Gary Richrath. Thank you.

[@donalginter1805]

One thumbs up just won’t do, you guys and gals freakin rocked it!!!

[@ianreeve5941]

The total vocal sound on this immense, well done you guys, love it! 😁😁😁😁

[@robertbyington7715]

This cover is the gold standard when it comes to this song so any band who wants to cover it probably needs to pick another song. OMG It’s like the joke why don’t singers sing Michael Mc Donald songs answer because they can’t lol

[@JohnKunkleAuctioneer]

Holy Smokes! That’s a wrap, let’s go home! ✌🏽❤️🎶

[@dirkpittthegreat4559]

I've commented before...however, wish i could give your band a like every time i listen to this song and many others. I always share with friends. You all are the very best cover band. Thank you for the smiles and memories.

[@victormoon2349]

I tell you this, Lexington sure does a great job picking the right songs to cover!!

[@mikecarmean6446]

What Really Great Copy Band... Very Tight! 💥💥💥💥💥 Nice Work "REO"

[@steamedhams7396]

Dale Adams and Jim Carpenter did a FANTASTIC job reproducing the great Richrath.

[@LexingtonLabBand]

Thanks for the very kjnd words!

[@petecogs]

Is there anything greater than music? More uplifting? My 4 brothers play guitar, I do, my two sons do , one a teacher the other a nurse and this is the reason why, excellent music played by excellent musicians. Thank you.

[@johnwilliamdammityouhacker]

I latched on to LLB like a tick on a six day suck. Just remarkable !

[@thomassicard3733]

SO AWESOME!!! All of it. But... THE VOCALS!!! LEAD and BACKUP!!! Sheeeeeeeeeit! I am totally rocked!!!!!

[@jimmy5634]

As usual...otherworldly.

[@TheSkull698]

Lyrically one of my favorite songs. These two lead vocalists did an excellent job on this tune. The slightly different timbre of their voices really did justice to it. Well done!

[@MiThreeSunz]

I watch and listen to this video at least once a month. It still blows me away! In my opinion, this rendition is one of the best performed and produced by LLB! 👊

[@steveblalock8721]

Those two guys on the Les Paul's rocked. Gary would have been pleased.

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Gary Richrath would be proud! 👍👍🤘✌🏻

[@BunneRabb]

By the mother of all momassing moose, this band is the cat's gazoonie. : )

[@nebraskajoel7838]

First rock concert that I ever saw....November 1978....REO Speedwagon. Six bucks! Best money that I ever spent.

[@rolfsvensson5777]

The best! Again and a Again!

I keep coming back to this song. Why.....well it ROCKS YOU CONTINUOUSLY FROM 365 DEGREES AROUND!

World of talent in that room.

[@peterk8909]

Glad you liked it, well deserved. Seems like a group of studio musicians. jmo

The sweet unmistakable tones of Gary's riffs!!! And the sweet sounds of a Hammond B3!!! Cheers!!!

You gotta have the ear to ear smile like Richrath when you play guitar on this song!

[@teedee3879]

This one was so good, it brought tears to my eyes!

[@judykarey8150]

2 Thumbs Up and More if I had them. Thank you LLB, Very much. Such perfection everytime.

[@IndependentFreeThinker]

As a seasoned musician myself, you guys continue to raise the hairs on my body! My heart just fills with joy when you guys play these awesome classics! I’m just beside myself!

[@randym.5140]

I've seen REO lots of times in the Richrath era... This takes me back. Gary used to go into his guitar solo and Kevin and Bruce used to put on goofy disguises and walk the concert areas and buy things from vendors when all of a sudden they would be lit up from an overhead spotlight and take off for the stage!! Wow, anybody else remember that?

[@garydonnelly100]

Nice! Old guys rock! We're getting our 70s band back to form after this long pandemic hiatus and I can't wait! With everyone in their 50s and 60s it's been a painful wait.

[@thomasporterjr.5020]

Gary Richwrath would be proud!! Excellent job

[@lindabergman3127]

He definitely would love this🌷🌹🌷🌹🌷🌷

[@MooseManNaturePhotos]

You guys are so fun to listen to......just amazingly tight renditions. My brother was sound man for Cocker for 20 yrs, wish he could hear you guys, bu we lost him in 1999 to cocaine

[@mcdude0192]

Gary is looking down from Heaven smiling. Great cover guys :)

[@merle9482]

Gary is smiling in heaven ❤❤

[@christopherbrodeur2333]

One of my favorite songs from REO. I must have listened to that song more than a 100 times. The vocals are Awesome as are the guitar solos. Great job carrying the background on piano. Just get the B3 solo cleaned up a little more so its more definitive like the original recording and its perfect. Great job on the drums they were spot on. A huge fan of LLB.

[@innotech]

Only 100?

[@TheBent139]

That Neil Doughty B3 solo is a monster to play. Sounds like like the settings were a little off. But Mike gave it a game effort. REO were an amazing live act with Richrath, for a few years in the 70's I swore he was the best rock guitarist..

[@ronaldrichards7749]

Wow, I think you guys took this song to a new level. Amazing job.

[@user-kg1mv5st3y]

Absolutely great!!!!

[@phillipsexton6099]

Wow, Awesome, Perfect, I should have to pay big $$$. Long live LLB.

[@chris.eskimo]

Great cover of an REO classic !!!!
