Seen REO 4 or 5 times at least, best shows were with Gary Richraft on lead guitar.

Riding The Storm Out, written By Gary Richraft.

True Story, I use to camp in Colorado in the winter, roommate and I were driving on a 2 lane mountain road in snow storm one winter in the mid 70s with this song playing on the stereo, when we see an old pickup truck approaching from the opposite direction, driver had his head out the window so he could see, guess his wipers didn't work, his beard, mustache and hair was iced over, he was "riding the storm out."

That is one of my favorite Reo's songs.


I worked on the road for over 16 years between '74 and '90 traveling all over the country for work and scenic vacations, this song is one of my favorites, as it reminds me of those days, and it was playing on the stereo then as well.
