Gosh, I love this concert! Saw them in Baton Rouge on, "Nine Lives", and then in January of '81 on the, "Hi Infidelity": tour, and, of course many concerts afterwards. At a very young age I knew, and felt, what an amazing rock band was, when I heard it. Thanks for sharing.
This is a really rare set list - Kevin hardly ever sang Sophisticated Lady as it was from their first album which had Terry Lutrell on vocal. Superb post, thanks for sharing.
I agree that Kevin sing "Sophisticated Lady" sounded a bit odd to me compared to Terry Lutrell. And thanks for subscribing !! Glad to see a fellow REO fan.
@@JayREO-GnR in the early 70s I would expect Kevin to sing material from their first album but in 1980 it’s probably quite rare. Except of course 157 Riverside Ave which they still play now. I’m a proper die hard REO fan 👍🏻
Summer tour to support the Decade of Rock Roll double album release so the set list is unique because it featured songs from that….I went to a couple of the Michigan shows on that tour…..I liked that Don’t Let Him Go was more of a rocker at this point before they “bubblegummed” it and wrecked it in the studio.
The quality of this recording and the set-list made this old guy re-discover the top end of the volume knob!
Thank you!!!!!

The band is really tight and Gary is just smoking it !!!!

Damm! They come out of the gates hard!! Weird that they're known as a pop band now.
Wow
Setlist??
Is this the Lansing show?
