    For those of us who LIVED the 1970's, WE know the past CAN'T be recaptured. There's a BIG DIFFERENCE between having seen bands like Head East, Foghat, Ten Years After, Grand Funk Railroad, Skynyrd back then, and the people who go see(in the 2000's) a ghost of what was and go around saying, "I saw Skynyrd last night." No, you DIDN'T. When key band members die, or can't play anymore, IT'S not the same. I have to hand it to Robert Plant. He hasn't ever seemed to be too interested in making a mockery of what Led Zeppelin WAS and he's to be commended for that.

      I’m sure these bands and their members who have passed on are grateful there’s not more fans like you purists who feel they should simply pack it up if someone dies. Of course the music changes. It’s art and that’s what art does. Guys still got to earn a living man. If AC/DC had quit when Bon died we would have missed out on a lot of music and millions of fans would never have seen them live.

It's not about studio trickery. Real music is what it's about and it can only come from your soul, heart, brain, fingers and your feet! If you are relying on studio effects to sound good then you are not a real musician or artist and your creativity is null and void!! :)

    This band played in my town twice. First time I got to hang out after the show with them for a little acoustic jam session. The second time they played at my local fair and the guitar player and drummer let me ride along and drove me to the gig. Most down to Earth rockers I've ever met and I cherish the time I had the privilege to share with them.

      Yes indeed. They are very cool indeed. Met them and hung with them a few times at summer festivals here in WA State. And at the last show they played here, they didn't even go into the "green rooms" they had laid out, backstage. They had a giant bus and Roger had a sweet motorhome. Partied with the fans. It was truly unforgettable.

    Hello my Rock-N friends. Here's some Champaign IL. Trivia for you. Just the way it happened. I'M sure the members of Head East will agree this Crazy is stuff you need to know. Here goes. In late August, 1969 Gary Richrath from around Peoria IL. and I knew each other from hanging out at a music store called C.V. loyds. Might have been two LL's excuse me. It's been awhile. We parked right near each other got out went into the store Gary plugged a Les Paul into a I think Fender Bandmaster Amp, I plugged a Strat into a Marshall 100 watt 4x12 speaker bottom that had just came into the store the day before. We preceeded to break into a version of the Stars Spangled Banner cranked as lound as possible. Usually C.V. Jr. Ran the store and Gary & I were known for our young & crazy antics. But CV. Sr. Was there came running into the guitar area shut the amps off. Told us to put the guitars back & get out and don't come back for a week. (Why a week I have no Idea) As we were leaving I ask Gary what he was up too and he said he was in town because although they didn't know it yet he was going replace Fiorio aka Duke Tumato. As the guitar player & song writer for REO Speedwagon. I'll get to Head East in a moment just stick with me. Gary was 2 years older than I was but we both had the same Midwest guitar style. He taught me alot R.I.P. Gary. He said hey there's a jam happening down the street a ways Terry Lutrell ( Original Lead vocalist REO) he said Mike Murphy will be there (who don't be fooled actually created the melody line for Riding the Storm Out and sang it when he replaced Kevin Cronin in REO. For a short period of time. I'm writing this to clear the air on some Champaign reality. Kevin Cronin was not I repeat not an original member of REO! Thanks I just had to say it. Terry L. & Mike M. We're both as talented as Kevin not taking anything away from Kevin he's truly a talented musician. Now for Head East. Gary managed to do just what he was there for. He became the guitarist for REO. I had gone to California and ran into Irving Azoff from Champaign IL. Blytham L.T.D. booking agency with Bob Robert Nutt. He barely knew me but as we talked he knew I was one of the boys from. Illinois. I was there to jam an afternoon show at the Trubadore just filling in. It was then that I first heard the name Head East. Irving said REO and Head East were going places and he was going to put Champaign IL. Into Rock-N-Roll history. He said he had Linda Rondstasts. Misspelled sorry, backup band he's going to make them famous (The Eagles) and a whole lot more. Now knowing Irv. as we called him could sell a dead man a watch I believed every word. I had been in L.A. for awhile so When Irving told me even if he can't sign them somebody would I knew Head East. was going places. And they did. It might be only 1 hit but Head East is a part and always will be of Rock History. So to all of the boys from Illinois I tip my hat. Rock-N-Roll would not be the same without you. As for me I took Gary R's advice he gave me in 1973, never sign on the dotted line. Just make a good living at music and manage yourself then No one will own you. So I got lucky I moved to Colorado played 5 nights a week for years at the Ski resorts. Aspen, Summit County, Breckenridge, Steamboat ect. But I owe it all to my friends from Champaign. that helped me lock into the Colorado scene. Oh yeah I almost forgot Pork & The Havana Ducks LoL God Bless ya'll & Keep Rock-N J.D.

      Great lineup of bands and it was great.
      We were right up front to the left. Right in front of Rick Nielsen and Roger Boyd.

    I grew up in Creve Coeur, IL and Mike Somerville lived a few doors down ( actually with his brother Scott and his wife). I would go over to their house with a friend who was Scott’s brother-in-law. Mike would get up in the afternoon and break out a gorgeous acoustic Ovation and jam. Occasionally, you would get people dropping in like Gary Richrath’s ex-wife. Man those were the days in a small unknown town.

      That must have been awesome! I saw them at a small club in Southern Wisconsin back in 1990 and got to go backstage and meet the band and Roger Boyd. He was eating a sandwich. I used to joke before that my goal in life was to own a HEAD EAST T-Shirt.

    In my hometown northwest México a local band used to play that amazing song!, not even played on any radio station there, people loved that song, was for sure a request on every gig!,
    Headeast an underayed band i think, comes to my mind: IT'S FOR YOU! a Beatle song, played by Three Dog Night, Headeast had a very good cover, and talking about voices and chorus!
    H.E. still rockin' on my playlists!!👏👏👍🏻👍🏻🤘🤘

    I actually helped John Schlitt load a couch onto his truck when he was moving to a new residence in Mt. Pulaski, Illinois...I believe it was in 1976. My family and I were visiting a family that used to be our neighbors in Carthage, IL and they just happened to live right next door to John Schlitt. That was a neat experience for me as I was 17 years old.
