RIP Gary Richrath
Yes!
I remember reading years ago, about a festival where all the guitar gods were that day, and Gary stole the show, and they all knew it.
Now you've heard it, you really should go watch this man perform this song live...RIP Gary Richrath. In the 70's we had AOR (album oriented radio) and this song was on it alot.
"no static at all..." 🌟
I was 5 the first time I heard this in 76, I was instantly transported to images of revolution! 😂 I'm betting this wouldn't be playing on today's "radio"! 👍
KING BISCUIT FLOUR HOUR.
This was on the radio back in the day! Gary Richrath was the real deal on guitar. RIP Gary. Kansas City has bragging rights to portions of this live album were recorded at Memorial Hall on Halloween back in the mid '70's! This album was huge not only for this song but many others. I have some found memories of this album playing in the background back then, but a gentleman never tells:)
Allen...don't remember this on the radio .. couldn't have been a big hit.
Honestly this and LIVE BULLET were amazing live performances
I agree with everything you said about Gary RIP & the album. We here in St. Louis share your bragging rights. They were at The Arena, that was a great concert.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Man, I haven't heard Gary's guitar solo in years. That is how you do it. Golden County is one of the best. Thanks Asia & BJ!
Hey Asia and BJ! REO Speedwagon was a powerhouse rock and roll band in the 70's and Gary Richrath was an amazing guitarist!You should check out 157 Riverside Avenue next or any of their live performances. Much love from SETX ✌️ ☮️ 🇺🇸 🎸 🎶 🎵
They've reacted to "157 Riverside Avenue" last year, you should check it out. They've also reacted to "Ridin' the storm out" from the Live album!
@kevinminne1460 Thanks!
Gary's flying turkey trot! 💯🔥
Seen them in concert a few times and they always brought the heat. Richrath is the most underrated guitarist of all time. Golden Country Is my favorite song by them and yes that is saying something because they had many great songs.
THis album is such an Iconic masterpiece.
I was fortunate to see them on this very tour in 76.
Gary Richrath isOne of the Greatest Guitarist I've Ever Heard
Well said
The first time I heard this it was playing on the Himalayan Express ride at the county fair. I was 16. Me and a friend of mine sat on the ground outside that ride and listened to all of this album. I went and bought it the next day. Thanks for playing it!!
The Himalayan always played the best songs!
"Ain't nobody talks with their guitar the way Gary does..."
Asia: "Oh he shredded it, the guitar probably stopped working after that" Best line of the video!!!
I was a disc jockey on a major market radio station from 1983 -1998, and we played this song. We didn't care about song length back then when it came to rock music. If it was good, we played it!
It's Combination Of Guitar And Hammond Organ
Hat's Off To Great Gary Richrath And Neal Doughty Two Of 3 Original Founding Members.
R.I.P. Gary Farewell Neal Hope You Enjoy Retirement.
REO Music Has Always Been A Big Part Of My Life.
You’re half right.
Gary was not an original member.
The band had been formed and
was playing locally a couple of
years before Gary joined.
Want more REO guitar? Try 157 Riverside Avenue, it's also on their live album.
One of the best live albums of all time!!!!! Gary was the GOAT!!!!
No one better playing the guitar than Gary saw them and he’s perfect with it 🎸
I've been waiting for someone to react to this song and Asia and BJ never disappoint. Gary Richrath was self taught and the result is a very unique style and sound that is very difficult to replicate. The solo in this song showcases his talent very well. One thing I would recommend is listening to it again and focus on Gregg Philbin's bass line. It's just as crazy. Sadly, neither of these two legends are still with us.
They absolutely played this on the radio. I was and still am a REO fan and loved this song. I saw them live when I was 16 and wanted to play the guitar the 40 years and here we are…. Rip Gary
REO at its finest. Criminally underrated guitar fills and solos. Sadly, the pop fans of the later REO never went back to hear what I call the real REO Speedwagon.
Has to be one of the greatest guitar solo's in Rock history! Has to be!
Damn, i'm just getting into these reaction videos. I grew up in East Peoria, Il. My neighbor was Eunice Ritchrath. Garys mother. My mom grew up & was best friends with his sister Sherry. Eunice was my babysitter. She was amazing & so proud of Gary. Her living room was full of gold & platinum records. Only met Gary a few times when he was in town, but he was super nice. He's the reason i started playing guitar. Very underrated! I think great mothers make great sons! She was great! I didn't have great father figures growing up, but i had some amazing women. Eunice Richrath is on top of that list. I miss them! Awesome reaction to a great band!!
One of my favorite albums and songs growing up!! Lyrics still rings true today. RIP Gary.
What a introduction to you two to the most underrated guitar player of all time. The late Gary Ritchrath
Gary had a recognizable, unique style of playing that was dependent on his use of certain phrases, riffs, and "trickery."
The more you listen to him, the more you learn to anticipate where his playing will take you, while at other times, he would throw you a curve, and take you somewhere else.
He was a remarkable player who did not receive all the accolades he deserved, and it broke my heart to see him deteriorating physically as he aged. He was one of the guitarists I wanted to be, but never could have been in a million years.
Gary Richrath is one of the most underrated guitar players ever.
Those REO days were a blast!!
Their best song by far!
I am totally in agreement with this statement.
This was recorded in St. Louis and Boston opened the show. After Boston was done they had to beg people for quiet to start the recording and it took a while because they tore the roof off the place! Just an incredible experience.
GARY was absolutely amazing
Gary Richrath was a guitar GOD! I am so happy you've discovered his guitar playing. Sadly, alcoholism sidelined his career and eventually gave him such stomach failure he died. In the 1970's, we had album rock stations. The D J's would play whole sides of albums, so we did hear this on the radio. ❤
One of the best solos ever
I love it. These two look like their minds are blown, hearing this for the first time. Some of us were blessed to grow up on this stuff...
Great song! It was recorded in Indianapolis on Halloween (you would have heard him say “Y’all have a happy Halloween!” If you had played the whole track) - my wife was at that show as an innocent 16 year old!
Gary Richrath was a beast! Saw them live back in the day and they rocked! Anything on this live album is worth reacting to.
Saw them live many times growing up in central Illinois. They always put on a great show. Good old Midwestern 70's rock. Check out the live version of 157 Riverside Avenue. Just nuts.
Me too! This was my first real concert - In Evansville, IN.
Gary Richrath so underrated or never rated!! INCREDIBLE
ONE OF MY FAVORITE REO JAMS!💯👍
fun fact this group was from my hometown little town outside of Peoria IL same place of Richard Pryor..my wife's aunt was in school with cpl of the band members when their were just a garage band....
RIP Gary! Damn drugs took so many of us over the years. Thanks be to God, I was a fortunate one to survive. Rock on REO!
💜 Glad you were able to hear and react to this song!! 😊💜🎶
Roll With The Changes, Ridin' the Storm Out are two more to check out.
I haven't heard this in years, Gary got Asia making stank face 😁
This song is needed now more than ever.
REO Speedwagon was phenomenal in concert, as were most bands back then, they were real artists. But, they did play it on the radio.
Gary loved playing his guitar and sharing his music and the musical talent of all members was awesome.
my favorite reo song. gary richrath was an amazing guitarist. rip, gary.
I like the studio version better and yes, this music made people love each other more
I Love watching You guys with these reaction videos Especially the music I grew up with I Love Music Especially Classic Rock I am within a couple of concerts of having been to 700 concerts And Yes I could tell you Guys are Music Fans as well Especially from Dallas I actually grew up just 2 hours East of here and came nearly every weekend if not here I would go to Shreveport to concerts I am pretty sure REO Speedwagon is coming to Dos but has not made it yet. I Love So many Bands you guys have done videos on that is So much fun I remember Triumph and Journey are all Top of my list and. I am having Fun watching and Loved that you played RTZ Brad Delphine of The Greatest Rock Vocalist
This was actually on the radio a lot back in the day!
I gotta say it warms my heart to see that the younger generation is keeping this music alive so happy to be passing the torch on to you guys thanks so much you guys are amazing and ROCK ON!!!!!!
Just love to hear Richrath rip and wail on that guitar. Guy was a unique talent. They were also one of the best live bands around.
It's so good to see you guys again. Yeah, this was on the radio a bunch as people have said. And it was quite daring for the time. But this life performance has become iconic; it's just so compelling.
Another live one that is fantastic and yet the studio recording actually is absolutely incredible, but it has a lot of the live Dynamics and a lot of answer back and call and Echo between the backing vocals in the league, especially near the end, also a fan-favorite, also a hit, Keep On Rolling.
They rocked in the 70's ! Then they went to the power ballads in the 80's.
More than just a pop band ay? Indeed. You know when a band can jam like this live they got skills and talent!
It's Gary on the guitar 💯🔥🤘🎸 So Great,they did put it on the radio 🔥💯🤘🎸 one guitar, that's Gary ❤ Love them you could see it live🎧
Seen reo in concert many of times
Gary Ritchrath was a bonafide rocker. Early Speedwagon were kind of a secret of hard rock fans of the time.
Gary Richrath is my guitar hero. I play guitar to this day because of him.
He used a wha wha pedal like no one else.
thanks you guys! I love seeing people react to music that moved me and shaped my life.
The best REO Speedwagon song for sure.Written by Gary Richrath,the lead guitar player,and the man who wrote their best rock songs.Kevin Cronin the lead singer,wrote their soft pop ballads.There is a video of this song from this album,it is worth watching to see Gary killing it and engaging the crowd.Gary was the driving force behind the band until they started playing more softer pop stuff.Sadly Gary has left us,but his songs will always be remembered.Try Riding The Storm Out live,another one by Gary.Thanks for this one.
I just heard this song on the radio a week ago. It wasnt this live version though. BTW, You Tube has this exact live version of this song. You can see Gary shredding during his solo...awesome.
That's old school af. Probably my favorite REO song.
157 Riverside Avenue. You won’t be disappointed….
This is a really good live version of "Golden Country" but my favorite older progressive REO song is called "Like you do" that is one of their best and most popular songs from them back then. By the way REO only had one guitar player back then and it was Gary Richrath he was one of the most underrated guitar players of all time.
Never heard REO sound like this before.
This whole live album "You Get What You Play For" is incendiary!
My favorite REO song of all time.
It's not selected puppets that create change for the good of the people. It's the people who stand up to them!
Gary made that guitar talk.
Don’t forget Roll With The Changes!
this is one of those songs that DJ's would put on when they needed a bathroom break, and it was played on the radio, it was different back then.
Encore , just encore .
Ya know I'm glad all music isn't the same for theese reasons
It's not about better or worse it's about what touches you or digs deep down .
Last Track Lighting Is A Favorite.
Gary Richrath Was Amazing 😊
Think about this before 1996 they had no auto tune,bands back they played on pure talent!
Try their song-take it on the run, don’t let him go, in you letter. So many great songs
I loved this video. Watching your reactions to this great song brought tears to my eyes. Gary Richrath is my biggest guitar hero. He grew up in my neck of the woods, and I went to school with Gary's son, Eric. Gary wrote this song in large part in protest to the war in Vietnam. Gary wrote a lot of REO's biggest songs. Such an underrated guitar player and song writer. Thank you for choosing this song. Your reactions made my day.
there is actually a video version of this performance. you should check it out if you want to see gary ripping on the guitar.
Naah that’s a sync with 1979 video footage
@@rutex09 that is true, but the audio is taken from the live album, and they did a decent job of syncing it up to the video. some of it is not a good match - especially the keyboard footage. still like it a lot more than a picture of the album cover.
@@realitybytez Yes they did a great job, if you do a TH-cam search of “REO Sreedwagon 1979” with the typo and go to 28:30 is the untampered video with 1979 audio
@@rutex09 thank you for this. but the time you refer to is roll with the changes.
@@realitybytez “REO Sreedwagon 1979” is the name of the video.
Not is Gary Richrath a great guitarist, but his tone on that Gibson Les Paul was out of this world.
I’m from East Peoria Illinois hometown of Gary richrath this song was always on the local rock station rock 106
They have so many great tunes the next one you need to listen to is roll with the changes
It's amazing how this song has transcended time. The message of this song is very much pertananent still today.
Gary Richrath... I put him in my top 10 guitarists ever... EVER! (maybe top 5)
Agreed! 👍 For me Jimmy Page,RIik Emmett,Ace, Richrath may be in my top 5 now n I've been hearing this song since 1977.
Hey, it's cool to see a black couple enjoying the white bread midwestern Rock that I grew up with there. Good job, I listen to all your "your" stuff too and love it! Prince did a good job combining it.
Alan Gratzer just wore those drums out. New kit needed after this one smoked! He wore gloves when he played and you can hear why!
Gary had great tone and feeling
Thanks! Love seeing you admiring what is classic rock! I grew up with this music, 60 yrs old now! Last REO concert I went to was 1985!!!!
We would go crazy when they sang this song! Back then we could go right up to the stage and interact with the band. One of my favs from REO!! ☮️ ❤️ 🎶 🎸 🎶
Believe it or not, this song was on the radio! Radio used to be so much better than today's version. Even back in the 80's and 90's this was played on a regular basis on radio that featured rock music. It's hard to play REO and NOT play this song. This one and Riding the Storm Out are among their best, Keep the Fire Burning being another. I still hear this song played on occasion on classic rock radio stations. If you liked this song you will like the others I mentioned as well.
Gary Richrath..wow!!
I ain't heard this tune in probably 35 years! First time hearing the lyrics! Thanks Asia and BJ! You da best!
I do believe that man's fingers were on fire when he got done with that solo ! I've been waiting a while for you guys to check this out , I knew you guys would love it ! That's old REO Speedwagon and that is their best song hands down ! That was my jam when I was 15 !! That got Tons of radio play , You gotta remember it was the 70s , A different time for sure !
when the song came out initially (1972) 'Nam was ongoing...yea, you tend to forget how great Gary was... sheeesh!
They were my first concert 1978 Chicago Amphitheater. Gary's guitar needed a cigarette after that solo.
REO was huge my senior year in high school (1977), one of my favorites.
Gary grew up 8 miles from me ..probably seen them 12 times..back when tickets were 4 dollars.
This is peak REO in my opinion. ✌
If you are not waching the live video of this YOU ARE MISSING OUT! What REO is saying here is what Paul is saying in 1st Corinthioans 14:1, which is follow after charity. If anyone knows their Bible it is saying to love all manking as God does, and He would have all to be saved, so you my friend....
48 years later And still as relevant as E V E R! 🤨💯❤️
Album oriented radio would play this ZETA4 in Miami always played this type of music in the 70s
FM rock stations played the heck out of it and some still do play it.
Old R E O straight BAD ASS
Asia & BJ, you’ll love their “Can’t Fight The Feeling”!!
Nobody better🎸 jamming
won tickets to this tour...won the tickets on KZOK seattle....GREAT show...back before they started writing songs for 14 year old girls...riding the storm out got a lot of play too
