    Great band! I'm glad I had the chance to see them in concert in 1973 at Roosevelt Stadium, Jersey City, NJ. Seals and Crofts opened, then came Poco, then the Eagles with guests Joe Walsh and Dan Fogelberg sitting in. What a show!

This special was wonderful, loved hearing the stories from them and they rightfully should be full of pride about this product they produced, a true Legacy!

    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 was very sad to hear of Rusty's passing, I am blessed to be acquainted with his great talents in the musical legend of Poco, I will always love them.

    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.

    The bike path in Key Largo, FL to Tavernier was completed recently. Tavernier towne shopping center was the place to be and I remember the POCO display in the window at the record store in 1978. 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.
