    I always thought that Richie was the heart and soul of Poco. How wrong can you be. I have been sitting here listeningand watching these later versions of Poco. It was Rusty. It was always Rusty. Him and Paul, but without Rustys Steel, thwre wouldnt have been Poco. And a Good Feeling to Know!

    Every time I heard the late Glenn Frey singing, it was almost like he was doing a Richie Furay impression, for example, the exxagerated R sounds, “She wonderrrrrs/ how it everrrr got this crazy.“ That's a Richie Furay styling.

    I’m a huge fan of late era Poco, and I loved this album when it was released. I am also a big fan of Lee Sklar, Jeff Porcaro and Richard Marx, who were responsible for huge swathes of the album. Although I always felt that the band themselves should have been able to get a good record made without help. And the inclusion of my favourite Poco member, Paul Cotton would have been a bonus. Nevertheless, wonderful stuff.

On radio WSHE-FM Fort Lauderdale played them. It took a big stick for reception in Key Largo to overcome that curvature of the earth thing.

      @Rick-jg8vx หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t necessarily disagree. I just think saying the best thing is a little harsh. Messina is an incredible talent, and their first album in my opinion is still probably best.
      That said Paul Cotton was in the band way longer than anybody except for Rusty and George and contributed more songs than anybody total including Rusty
      His possibly my favorite Poco member and it always distresses me a little when I listen to legacy or see a video like this that Paul was not included. He wasn’t original member, but he might as well Been
      Actually, this legacy. Is a little deceptive because it doesn’t include the two players that were arguably the real backbone to Poco during their creative height and that’s Paul Cotton and Timothy Schmidt.
      One of my first albums in the 70s and it’s long out of print, but epic records put out a compilation of the best of Richie Furray and then a second compilation of the best of Paul Cotton. Both are excellent.
