Let's see... HiInfidelity came out when I was in 9th grade, a pivotal year for my musical growth. It was probably my favorite album of that year. I still love that album, after all these years. At that point in time, I collected most of their previous albums, which went back to the very early 70's. They had some great music. I think Good Trouble was their last really good album, and that they became consumed with the fame of their "power ballads". "I can't Fight This Feelin'" will go down in music history as one of the sappiest ballads ever to be released to Top 40 radio... and I will always consider it the downfall of REO Speedwagon.
