Thanks LukeM_UK, mine came from a juggalo site called juggalosforlife@msngroups.com. It was an animation there and I had only had the pics of one Jeckyl brother, now I have both of them......Jake & Jack Jeckyl. Glad you like it, I don't know why it is so big, but I am glad it is.

good point, even still looks shouldn't sell the music.. but hey it didn't, and then came mtv, and everyother music channel, and then the looks were the only thing selling it... **** being awesome live, and having a good sound.. a nice few of the 70;s bands couldn't make it in the 80's because of the video's.. videos really did kill the radio star.

Default Do I Love REO?

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.

Gary Richrath was a really good rock guitarist with amazing tone. Listen to the solo on Take it on the Run.

Rob Halford may have fucked a lot of guys in his day, but opening for REO Speedwagon was definitely the gayest thing he ever did.

Wow! Today I just found out that Can't Fight This Feeling was by REO Speedwagon. I swore it was by Air Supply - considered my mind blown. I almost always hear that song whenever I'm in a grocery or department store. Never listen to one of their albums ever. So I had to check them out on YouTube. Any album suggestions? The lead singer looks like Geddy Lee's younger brother. Is he?
