Legendary Lead Guitar player and founding member of of the rock group REO Speedwagon passed away last Sunday.

Great band from the early 1970's even though they went top 40 in the early 1980's. My hometown album rock station was the first in the country to play an REO Speedwagon song.

Sorry to hear this, when I was in high school they were all over the airwaves. Hearing one of their songs reminds me of those times...

I didn't hear about this directly. I heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who heard it from another.

I bought "High Infidelity" in 1981 when I was 16. It's on Vinyl!! Still got it after all these years. In the early 80's they were considered one of the biggest rock groups in the world.

Bad pun! BAD!

High Infidelity was the first album I ever bought, but mine was cassette. Probably still have it around somewhere. Great band. Condolences to his friends and family.
