REO at home again on charts

MAY 12, 2007

Reo_find_home_2 What a week for music fans. First Rush's new CD debuts high on the charts. And now REO Speedwagon's first single from their new album lands at No. 30 as well.

I'm telling you: The '80s are back. Might as well go out there and burn your John Mayer and Fergie CDs, because it's only a matter of time before we're all feathering our hair again and wearing concert jerseys and navy blue corduroys. (Alas, the days of $14 concert tickets are probably gone for good.)

"I Needed To Fall" is the name of the REO tune off the CD "Find Your Own Way Home." It'll definitely remind you of their hits from the early 80s.
