I remember buying this album in the mid 80's for $3.99.
Well, first you have the two classic rock staples. Roll With the Changes is one of their best, an all out rocker that never stops.
Time For Me to Fly is the direction they would be taking two albums later on Hi Infidelity.
Say You Love Me or Say Goodnight is a sort of minor classic among REO fans. Decent song, not great, but should be getting some airplay.
The other track I remember hearing, and it being pretty good, was Runnin' Blind. Sort of a mid-tempo rocker. If you like REO, check it out.

I remember when this album was released. Unfortunately I'm only familiar with two tracks Time For Me To Fly and Roll With The Changes . I'm going to check out the song that Sat mentioned Runnin' Blind .
Faves - Time for Me To Fly and Roll with The Changes.

Hi Dawn
Don't own this album, but know three of the tracks.
roll With The Changes, Time for me to Fly, & Say You Love Me or Say Goodnight are all great tracks. Great title for an album though, it was pretty funny back in the day.

Interesting coincidence - VH-1 Classic played the video to 'Roll With the Changes' yesterday! I agree that 'Say You Love Me or Say Goodnight' should be getting more airplay than it does. 'Runnin' Blind' is another good one. |

'Time for Me to Fly' and 'Roll With the Changes' are the two tracks I'm the most familiar with also, and I've always liked both of those. I think you'll like 'Runnin' Blind' - it's a really good rocker, with some excellent guitar work. |

Great title for an album though, it was pretty funny back in the day. Hi dodger! I agree, that is a catchy album title! The cover art is pretty cool as well. I really like REO's early work - the songs have a bit more of an edge than their post-Hi Infidelity material. |
