Kevin Cronin's clear, earnest tenor and Gary Richrath's muscular guitar made them one of the defining sounds of American rock radio, and this set follows that arc from the late seventies through to the late eighties, with a couple of then-new songs added for good measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep On Loving You remains the blueprint power ballad, Cronin's plea building over pounding piano into a huge, cathartic chorus, while Can't Fight This Feeling is the slow-dance classic that never seems to leave the airwaves. Take It on the Run swaggers on one of Richrath's finest riffs, and Roll With the Changes is pure stomping, organ-driven optimism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sequencing moves between ballads and rockers with ease, a reminder of just how many radio staples this band wrote and how well they hold up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who grew up with these songs blasting from a car stereo, or anyone discovering them for the first time, this is the quickest route to a full-blown singalong, no skips required.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57165871153457,"sku":"194397640014","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/REO_Speedwagon-The_Hits.jpg?v=1793186322","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/reo-speedwagon-the-hits","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
