What about REO?  I know some associate them with the 1970s, but they had their biggest hits in the 1980s before imploding and most of the band leaving Kevin Cronin to front a ghost band.  And NO, I'm no longer a fan, LOL!

I  consider the 70s and 80s REOs to be 2 separate bands.  I prefer the 70s version... heck I prefer the 4 albums they recorded WITHOUT Kevin Cronin over most of the stuff they recorded with him.  That being said, I do consider "You Get What You Play For" to be one of the best live albums I've ever heard.  As such I consider them much more a 70s than an 80s band.
