Album Review
Good Trouble disappointed the bean counters and the snob critics who always hated this Champaign quintet anyway. Sure it's no Hi Infidelity, but Good Trouble shoots out some golden shards. Where Hi Infidelity perfectly balanced the muscle of REO's '70s stuff with wads of bankable bubblegum, here, lead single "Keep the Fire Burning" signals a decent into generic; but much of Good Trouble plays out a rocking and rollicking good time, fighting off mediocrity. First off, bassist Bruce Hall comes to the fore twice (usually once) and delivers two knockouts: "Girl With the Heart of Gold" and "Let's Be-Bop." As always, Neal Doughty's keys spruce up the works; "I'll Follow You" features his sublime touch as well as sizzling Richrath axe-kicking behind a dusty, lusty Texas café tale. Coup de grâce "The Key" unlocks a commercial paradox: a transcendent tapestry housed in a homogenized humdinger, as Kev Cronin bellows questions about what he knows and sees, yearning for the answer locked within himself. But only he can set it free; only he has the key. Brilliant.
Customer Reviews
didn't deserve the hits it got
Not even the band would agree that this was as good in Hi Infi. In fact, some have been quoted as saying they didn't like this record. However, there is a great lineup of songs here. It has become a great REO classic and is their most under rated album to date.
The Key is the ultimate
If you are into words. You will love this song. Very deep stuff. Kevin Cronin and the rest of the band it the nail on the head with this one!
BLAZING HOT!
Some may not like this album, but it is the perfect follow up for Hi Infidelity. I know every word to every song on this album. "I'll Follow You" is a wild, wild ride! Perfect for "air keyboarders" like me! These guys have been a favorite of ours since we saw them in concert on March 15, 1983.
