Keep on Loving You
~ Recording by REO Speedwagon
Annotation
USSM18000490, USSM18000607 & USSM18000608 appear to be the original mix. I've listened to all 3 on the attached YouTube. Appears to be just mastering differences.
USSM18800133 is the 1988 remaster.
USSM19907674 is the 1999 remaster.
USSM10012808 is the 2000 remaster.
