REO Speedwagon • “Take It On The Run/Keep On Loving You” • LIVE 1980 [Reelin' In The Years Archive]

[@jakobbednarchuk5761]

Can we just soak in how awesome the harmonizing is? It’s like top boy band quality but arena rock style. So damn good.

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Gary Richrath was frickin awesome back then! R.I.P. Gary!

[@peggymann7096]

There's a memorial bench for him in E. PEORIA, Lovely place to sit by the river.

[@MannyL-g3m]

He gave REO that great sound!! Rest in Peace sir.

[@DIRTKNAPFX]

Criminally under appreciated. Dude had tone that guys would give their teeth for.

[@tammyfaries685]

Gary and Kevin were phenomenal together! ❤

[@jmm1817]

Totally. And at the 3:00 that guitar riff is so cool

[@jmax479]

To have this music be the soundtrack to my youth was just fantastic.

[@mikedutkiewicz5860]

Absolutely!!

[@powlperc]

Now that’s real music. No computers. Another great Illinois band..

[@skeletonshorror5184]

Amen - Illinois boys! ❤️🇺🇸

[@ScottGarland-r4v]

Another Amen !!!

[@ldhunt1474]

I'm hip ❤

[@peggymann7096]

Saw them in the 70's. We couldn't wait to see them.

[@jmm1817]

Yep 100%. Kevin hit the wrong chord for a second at 2:03. As a guitarist it's kind of refreshing knowing the guy that wrote the song can still make mistakes

[@guitrich]

Kevin Cronin's voice was the best ever in this video. Gary Richrath's solo on Take it on the Run and Keep On Loving You was perfect. RIP

[@paulbyrne2929]

Champaign style*

[@tammyfaries685]

REO SPEEDWAGON, the toast of Champagne-Urbana!!

[@holliebiancalana7409]

Love REO Speedwagon. Great music.

[@brian7193]

It's dec 2024 and this is still one if the first songs on any playlist reo are simply fantastic

[@cbartal1]

This was the perfect soundtrack of the late 70s and early 80s for every kid who just wanted to go out and enjoy a Friday night, and didn't want to worry about the next 50 years of their life. And interestingly enough my best friend was a guy named Jay Bennett. He was immensely talented but he was also, oh I don't want to step on his grave. The only thing I will say is that Jay learned everything in his formative days from Gary Ritchwrath

[@markheimbach6845]

At 70, there is no way in hell that REO was not the best of the best. Iconic, fantastic and .......no words folks.

[@TheAayize]

Im freakin OBSESSED with this performance ❤❤❤

[@rudydesantiago5017]

Perfection... how underrated is Kevin Cronin as an all-time great front man and that solo by Gary Richrath is🔥🔥🔥

[@mikedutkiewicz5860]

Used to see them every year at the Star Plaza theater in Merrillville Indiana with stix!! 2nd row and VIP backstage!! Worked for a company that did al the renovations there so had the inside track on tickets!! So awesome!!!

I met Gary years ago at a Dodger game. Gracious, nice guy. So sad his demons consumed him. RIP

[@AlanFox-b4f]

Reo speed wagon classics 2024

[@jakobbednarchuk5761]

Props to Ozark for bringing these guys on ; obvi they got paid but still. That show is legend, so it’s only fitting to have a legendary band on there too.

[@wstussyb]

Always had an interesting pronunciation of the R's

[@crisrose521]

The camera should NEVER leave the guitarist during a SOLO . So annoying

[@biglyon123]

Gary solo on heard it from a friend !!!camera guy failed 😢😢I wanted to see his emotions while riffing

[@johnnyfleming522]

Cronin apparently paid the camera guys to keep the cam on his no talent ass 😂

[@michaelbarkerjr7333]

You mean on take it on the run lol

[@connymitchell83]

Sounds like me❤❤❤

[@michaelbarkerjr7333]

Look at cronins eyes 😳😳😳😳😳😳 we all know that look lmao

[@robkrasinski6217]

Is REO still touring without Gary? Did they get another guitarist? I like 70's and 80's music.

[@07foxmulder]

Never knew Meatloaf could play guitar like that.

[@connymitchell83]

Tell me that guy didn't love me 😢

[@RecoveringLiberal-q1n]

Kevin looks like a dork. He got better looking and cooler looking as he got older

[@terryhill4732]

Your putting on your bedroom eyes, baby!

[@mariomartinex75]

WEDNESDAY UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

[@davidgish-h1c]

gary was the star of the showwhen they droped him for drinking to much they sucked after that!!

[@mirrordblack3307]

is Kevin a muppet🤔

[@fernandocoelho]

Que banda fraquinha...

[@peggymann7096]

Isnt the guitar great.

[@ticktock2383]

This speed has been reduced by .5. The real song has a faster tempo. Shameful.

[@stevosan3225]

Dude, she was totally cheating, so . . . . . . .

[@stevecurry5055]

I love REO, but this is so pitchy - hard to listen to …

[@astonm.8173]

He shouldn't sing live, doesn't hold up unfortunately.

[@stevegarth6902]

Absolute bull
