REO Speedwagon - Tough Guys (Live in Tokyo, Japan 1981)
Classic Rock Live Music (High Quality Audio)REO Speedwagon Playlist https://rumble.com/playlists/HePlw1rGBSg Live Tunes Playlists https://rumble.com/user/VigilanteMan/playlists Concerts - https://rumble.com/c/ClassicRockConcerts/videos?sort=views On September 29, 1981, REO Speedwagon performed at Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, Japan, during their Hi Infidelity tour, which was the peak of their commercial success following the album's release in November 1980 (selling over 10 million copies worldwide). The classic lineup—Kevin Cronin on vocals/guitar, Gary Richrath on lead guitar, Neal Doughty on keyboards, Bruce Hall on bass, and Alan Gratzer on drums—delivered a high-energy set to a Japanese audience, blending arena rock power with melodic hooks from Hi Infidelity tracks like "Keep On Loving You" and "Take It on the Run," alongside earlier classics such as "Ridin' the Storm Out." The performance, captured on FM broadcast exemplifies their polished, radio-friendly sound and superior live execution during this era, when they were transitioning from heartland rock roots to international stardom. REO Speedwagon, formed in 1966 in Champaign, Illinois, built a loyal following through relentless touring in the 1970s before exploding into superstardom in the 1980s with the 1980 masterpiece Hi Infidelity, a slick pivot from hard rock to radio-friendly pop-rock that sold over 10 million copies and spent 15 weeks at #1 on the Billboard 200, spawning four massive singles: the chart-topping “Keep On Loving You,” “Take It on the Run,” “Don’t Let Him Go,” and “In Your Letter.” The album’s follow-ups Good Trouble (1982) and Wheels Are Turnin’ (1984) kept the momentum with hits like “Keep the Fire Burnin’” and “Can’t Fight This Feeling,” while the band’s high-energy live shows—including a historic appearance at Live Aid in 1985 alongside members of the Beach Boys—cemented their arena-rock legend status. Though mainstream success faded after 1987’s Life as We Know It, REO Speedwagon has sold over 40 million records worldwide, charted 13 Top 40 hits, and remains one of America’s most enduring and beloved live acts more than five decades later.

Clean FM stereo captures every Cronin vocal, Richrath guitar solo, and Doughty keyboard run in front of a fired-up Michigan crowd, right before Hi Infidelity took them to the top. Pure 1980 heartland rock fire. REO Speedwagon is an American rock band from Champaign, Illinois. Formed in 1966, the band cultivated a following during the 1970s and achieved significant commercial success throughout the 1980s. The group's best-selling album, Hi Infidelity (1980), contained four US top 40 hits and sold more than 10 million copies. Over the course of their career, the band has sold more than 40 million records and has charted 13 top 40 hits. REO Speedwagon's mainstream popularity waned in the late 1980s, but the band remains a popular live act. On November 21, 1980, Epic released Hi Infidelity, which represented a change in sound, going from hard rock to more pop-oriented material which happened to way to many rock bands from the 70’s. Hi Infidelity spawned four hit singles written by Richrath and Cronin, including the chart-topping Keep On Loving You (Cronin), plus Take It on the Run (Richrath), In Your Letter (Richrath), and Don't Let Him Go (Cronin), and remained on the charts for 65 weeks, 32 of which were spent in the top ten, including 15 weeks atop the Billboard 200. Hi Infidelity sold over 10 million copies. The band's follow-up album, Good Trouble, was released in June 1982. Although it was not as successful as its predecessor, the album performed moderately well commercially, featuring the hit single Keep the Fire Burnin'. REO Speedwagon toured the US in 1985, including a sold-out concert in Madison, Wisconsin in May. On July 13, on the way to a show in Milwaukee, the band made a stop in Philadelphia to play at the US leg of Live Aid, which broke a record for number of viewers. They performed Can't Fight This Feeling and Roll with the Changes which featured members of the Beach Boys, the band members' families, and Paul Shaffer on stage for backing vocals. 1987's Life as We Know It saw a decline in sales.
