R.I.P. Gary Richrath: Former REO Speedwagon Guitarist And Songwriter Dies At 65, Band Says

[Rick-o]

R.I.P. Gary, thanks for all the cool jams.

I was (and still am) a big REO Speedwagon fan. I loved Gary's guitar playing. He had a unique style. Much too young to be checking out.

Sad news. RIP

He was really good. Maybe he had good chops, but mostly he was very melodic, which I think is a lot less common. kj.

Ah, that's a shame. He was a terrific player. To his credit, he left shortly after the band became a nostalgia act.
