Happy New Year, easymac! The lyrics do sound very "Kent State-ish," in that Gary noticed what was happening and expressed his feelings! I'm a student of the...
I will have to go back and look carefully at that! Tooo funny! Thanks Morris, even though this is posted on Jim's thread! My mind is blank today from work last...
Hey, that's true!! Gary definitely had the more professional and mature attitude towards the terrible things KC said about him! --Daryl ... From: Rob Diaz II...
KC never had any balls! Even in '79 when he was playing that Les Paul, KC didn't look like he could have handled a set by himself!! That guitar just didn't fit...
Yeah! I remember Gary was quoted as saying (as he was chasing after the rest of the band while they were driving down the road), "You need me!!!" -- Daryl ... ...

You can find it on eBay -- it's called "Only the Strong Survive." It's the only one to my knowledge that's out there. Kathy did mention some time ago that he...
Unlike Cronin who, when asked about the origins of "Shakin' It Loose," (a song he didn't write), publicly ridiculed it and crassly proclaimed it was a song...
You got that right. Look at what Cronin did with REO's signature song, "Ridin' The Storm Out." He stripped the tune Gary wrote down to an acoustic ballad, fer...
He dangled more than a mere paycheck. Money buys pretty women, powerful drugs, fancy cars, furnished mansions and exotic vacations... --Shoofly ... their...
kC revealed that to me in a private conversation when I asked him if that was what the song was about as a lot of people here wanted to know. So I asked, and I...
KC publicly "revealed" this to everyone listening to REO's remake of Hi Infidelity that was broadcast on XM Radio. Not only was it a crass put down of Gary's...
