The Hits (Compilation)

The Hits is a definitive snapshot of REO Speedwagon at their arena-filling peak—bringing together the songs that made them one of the biggest rock bands of the late ’70s and early ’80s. Originally released in 1988, this 12-track collection captures the perfect balance of heartfelt power ballads and driving, riff-heavy rock that defined their sound.

Featuring global smash singles “Can’t Fight This Feeling” and “Keep On Loving You,” alongside fan favourites like “Take It On The Run,” “Roll With The Changes” and “Keep Pushin’ On,” the album showcases a band that knew how to turn emotion into anthems. Whether it’s soaring choruses or straight-ahead rockers, REO Speedwagon’s knack for connecting with listeners shines through on every track.

Also included is a standout live version of “Ridin’ The Storm Out,” highlighting the electrifying guitar work of Gary Richrath, plus two tracks originally exclusive to this release—“Here With Me” and “I Don’t Want To Lose You.”

Pressed on 140g vinyl, The Hits is a timeless collection that distils the essence of classic American rock—big hooks, bigger feelings, and songs built to last.
