This box set collects five of the eight albums Poco recorded for Columbia`s Epic Records imprint between 1969 and 1974 (the band parted ways with the label and signed with ABC Records in 1975) and aside from 1971`s live Deliverin` (which isn`t included here), it provides a neat capsule history of the Richie Furay era of the group (Furay left Poco following 1973`s Crazy Eyes, the latest album collected in this set). A band that was just a blink ahead of its time, Poco was a bit too country for the rock audiences of the day and a bit too rock for the country crowd back then, but they paved the way for bands like the Eagles to grab a little bit of both of those musical cultures later in the decade. Always fun, energetic, and upbeat, Poco`s finest phase came in those early Furay years and this box set affords an excellent way to plug into the best years of this delightful band. ~ Steve Leggett
