...Poco. Richie Furay genuinely loves this town and Boston genuinely loves Poco. I know a guy with tickets in the second row, and he's on cloud nine. And with good reason. Poco makes about the finest countrified rock around, and does it with such effervescent good humor that it's contagious.

Overall another Stills styled song...
...another Buffalo Springfield. And in this they've failed, because Springfield was as much a case of hitting the industry at the right time as it was a case of a good innovative band. Eagles simply appears to overlead a genre probably sainted by the success of Poco and Loggins and Messina...
