R.E.O. Speedwagon – Golden Country

When I was in junior high school in Indiana, R.E.O. Speedwagon was touring hard, making a name playing armories and field houses in cities and towns all over the Midwest. Long before Kevin Cronin turned them into a pussy commercial pop band, R.E.O. rocked with the best American bands of the 70's. Back then lead guitarist Gary Richrath was the band's driving creative force, and that dude could shred.

Uriah Heep – Wizard

My big brother had an awesome record collection when I was a kid. He'd get jobs flipping burgers or whatever so he could spend the money on albums. When he was out working or at football or band practice, I'd sneak into his room and listen to them. I got acquainted with a lot of great music that way. Thanks, Bro. And sorry about the sneakin'.

John Hartford – Tall Buildings

I remember watching John Hartford pick the banjo and guitar on the old Glen Campbell show as a kid. The running gag on the show was that John never really spoke, he just let his music do the talking. Sometime around 1980 or so I went to see him at the old Guthrie Theater with some friends. He sang this song that night. It's been one of my very favorites ever since, and it takes on more poignancy with each passing year. You youngsters can check out a David Mayfield tribute cover here, and a Gregory Alan Isakov version here.
