Notes

WHAT DO YOU give the band that has achieved their dreams and more? Answer: More time in the studio. REO’s thirteen year overnight success had propelled the band to the moon and beyond. ‘Hi Infidelity’, their previous album, achieved platinum status ten times over, hogging the #1 spot on the US album charts for an incredible fifteen weeks, whilst the hit single ‘Keep On Lovin’ You’ became a mainstay of American radio play. From their hometown of Champaign, Illinois to drinking Champagne from crystal glasses, the band suddenly became the most talked about act in the country. Following up ‘Hi Infidelity’ was never going to be easy, a fact not helped by pressure from their label to deliver another album with super human speed. Internally all was not wine and roses either, front man and prominent songwriter Kevin Cronin was dealing with a bout of writers block and a growing feeling of uncertainty about the band’s new found pop star notoriety. Fortunately help was on hand from the rest of the band, including guitarist Gary Richrath and bassist Bruce Hall, stepping up to the plate and providing enough material to put the project back on the straight and narrow. Issued in 1982, ‘Good Trouble’ is yet another fine slice of American Midwest hard rock. ‘Keep The Fire Burnin’, ‘I’ll Follow You’, ‘Stillness Of The Night’ and the title track easily pick up were the band had left off, kicking and punching their way back to the top of the charts and our hearts. A firm foundation for even more success next time around. Special Deluxe Collector’s Edition, fully remastered sound shaped from 24 BIT digital technology, 16 page full colour booklet, 3,500 word essay, enhanced artwork, rare photos and new interview with Kevin Cronin
