Dave nailed the KOYL solo about a week ago in Kansas City. .Note for note. It was the only note for note solo he played all night! He doesn't need to play note for notes though. He plays his interpretation, so you get Dave being Dave! And I love it!

for everyone bashing KC... Have you ever met the man? Arrogant is not a word that comes to mind. Remember Richrath (who was brilliant) wasn't fired. He chose to leave us. Ive been partying with "this" band for 24 years. You should come join.

Well spoken!! I'm a HUGE Gary Richrath fan, and like you, I'm a guitar player as well and respect both Gary & Dave. Even being a Gary fan, I purchased the video of his last show with the band: Hawaii, on the "Hits" tour, and he wasn't playing well, unfortunately. He came in early for the solo on "Keep on Loving You," for example, and it ruined the tune. Hopefully he has conquered his "demons" and is enjoying life & the rewards of sobriety...

Gary Richrath was my all time favorite guitar player. Shortly after his departure from REO, He came to Waterloo, IA & played a small club. My friend and I stopped in the place earlier in the afternoon to check it out, and Gary was walking, and going out the door as we were just going in. Got to visit a minute, get his autograph, it was pretty kewl memory. BTW, He fuckin rocked that place that nite. It was just a bar with a med stage. Gary was the best

Dave is truly an excellent player. However, I really don't understand how, after 20-plus years, he can't nail the KOLY solo. Just watch Gary do it from the '85 Kansas City Kemper Arena show that is here on KZbin; it's almost as emotional as on the album.

Lol Sorry Kevin old man but the ONLY one in REO that recorded this song in 1972 was Neil on the keyboards!! For those who don't know what I am talking about - Kevin (lead singer) was not a member of REO when this song was originally recorded the bass player, the lead guitar player and the drummer were all original members of REO who have either passed on (RIP Gary, Lead guitar) or got fed up with Kevin trying to make REO a chick band. Now I will say this - REO is as famous today as they are because of where Kevin took them!! It was HIS songs that were the number one hits, myself though, I prefer the old REO, the one that could rock the house all night long!!
@Json5475 жыл бұрын
Actually you are WRONG! KC joined in 1972 and recorded the T.W.O. Album with the band. He then was fired only to return for good in 1976. He was with the band for every hit that made the charts. He actually recorded Ridin the storm Out with the band before being fired in 1973 and mike murphy was hired before the album was released. If you are going to say something make sure its right

It doesn't "suck". It's pleasant. It's serviceable. It's completely adequate. If you want Gary, the 1976 version is on YT, and so is the 1979. And there's the live album. It's not Dave Amato's fault he's not awesome. If every guitarist was as good as Gary, we wouldn't be able to recognize greatness when we saw it. (Hell, the fools who keep leaving Gary out of their "Greatest Guitarists" lists STILL can't see it, for that matter.) As for Kevin, I just enjoy him as a comedy act, tbh.
