    Sorry, I like Mobile Fidelity but I don't like their mastering on this release. Smiley-faced EQ full steam ahead. Way too bright which was the very last thing this recording needed. Oh yeah, and the bass is too boomy.

      By far my favorite Poco album. Oddly it's not as coveted by many Poco devotees. Maybe this is because the band was for all intents defunct at the time of the recording, only retaining Cotton and Young. Fun fact,, the album cover artist was Phil Hartman of Saturday Night Live fame. This MFSL release is hands down the best of the releases I've run across. It's more articulate but still retains that warm 70's sound. Worth the slight for a good copy.

        Sounds incredible! The elevated MFSL standard truly shines through on this release.

          Poco doesnt seem to get much love these days but picked this up for cheap & in my humble opinion this record sounds incredible.
