Long
before Wilco or The Jayhawks or Ryan Adams, there was one country rock
band that towered over all others. Founded by former members of the
brilliant Buffalo Springfield, Richie Furay and Jim Messina, along with
multi-instrumentalist Rusty Young and drummer George Grantham, Poco
pioneered a blend of sounds that would come to dominate singles charts
and radio for years to come. Indeed, some of Poco’s most beloved tracks
are still treasured by fans today including “Crazy Love,” “Heart Of The
Night,” “Call It Love” and “Rose Of Cimarron.” These songs as well as
the nearly 20 studio albums the band released over the years have
ensured that the Poco legend endures.
While Poco’s recording output is well-known and widely celebrated, the band’s live performances are the true treasures for longtime fans. One very special concert occurred one night in Nashville, TN in 2004. Original members Furay, Young and Grantham all participated as well as longtime member Paul Cotton. Together, the group offers up fantastic renditions of their biggest hits and most beloved songs. Now this special live performance is being released on glorious vinyl in a limited-edition TRANSLUCENT BLUE as well as on digipak CD. It’s a superb package that fans old and young will not want to miss!
