\"REO<\/a>I had seen this album cover for years even before I knew who REO Speedwagon <\/em>was. It always seemed to be there. I would look at it\u00a0and it would make me wonder. It was such an odd thing to put on an album cover. OK maybe not as odd as a topless\u00a0pre-teen girl holding a model\u00a0airplane or Edgar Winter.<\/p>\n

By the time I connected the dots, I had already accumulated a handful of REO Speedwagon albums. I don’t know why this on eluded me for so long. It was either Al or Mark across the hall that introduced me to You Can Tune A Piano, But You Can’t Tuna Fish.\u00a0<\/em> It was still REO Speedwagon but it felt a little more serious or mature than Hi-Infidelity. <\/em><\/p>\n

Tuna Fish<\/em> became my favorite REO Speedwagon album. I’m not sure if it was because Al liked it so much or if I was changing.\u00a0 Tuna Fish<\/em> seemed a little more rock and roll than Hi-Infidelity.\u00a0<\/em> It had a louder and more raw feel to it that seemed to fit with the direction I was heading.<\/p>\n

There is still more REO Speedwagon ahead of us but for now it’s Time For Me To Fly.<\/em><\/p>\n

Roll With The Changes<\/em>
