You Can Tune A Piano, But You Can’t Tuna Fish
It was while suffering a hangover that Cronin came up with the name for REO’s breakthrough album, the first to make the US Top 30. But as the singer explained: “Joe Walsh had called his record The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get. So the stage was set for wacky album titles.”
In reality, it was no laughing matter. For a band in desperate need of a hit, this album saved their career. And its two singles both became REO standards: Roll With The Changes, a soulful heavy rock number, and Time For Me To Fly, a bittersweet kiss-off to Cronin’s first love.
