bbqbob Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 So many of the artists we all listened to in the 60s and 70s are passing almost on a weekly basis. Makes me feel old. RIP Gary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryz Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 RIP Gary Richrath, I find it tough to imagine this, when you and I are the same age...I'll see you in the spirit world! Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipclone 1 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Oh man that sucks. `Ridin the Storm Out` got stuck in my head recently, without even hearing it. Loved that song. RIP Gary, you did it right.

whitefang Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Never really knew ANY of the names of REO Styxwagon, but it IS sad to hear another brother in strings is gone. Condolences to his family and survivors, and RIP. Whitefang I started out with NOTHING...and I still have most of it left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesape Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 He was a tone fanatic, and supremely diligent about maintaining his vintage LP's. Never a DUH! moment! Well, almost never. OK, OK! Sometimes never! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caevan O’Shite Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I've always really liked his tone and playing, and consider him to have been a bit of an influence on me, really. I was sorry to learn of his passing.

desertbluesman Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Never listened to REO that much or that closely, but if that guy liked tone, and worked hard to get it, I respect his efforts. RIP Gary another tone monster gone to his great reward. dbm If it sounds good, it is good !! http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=143231&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
