one of my favorites, it was written by Paul Cotton (not part of the original Poco formed after Buffalo Springfield's demise) about his old band Illinois Speed Express breaking up. that song's high point was a pedal steel guitar solo by Rusty Young and a 12-string guitar part played by Richie Furay, both formerly of Buffalo Springfield (along with Neil Young, Stephen Stills and Jim Messina.)

But in the group's 1975 album Head Over Heels, one of the songs the critics hailed - Dallas - wasn't by the duo. that song, written specifically for Poco, was by Donald Fagen and Walter Becker of Steely Dan.
OT: uy, sarap mamasyal dyan sa Akihabara, Sir. my friend here in Davao, EGP in this board i think, just came back from Nagoya and Kyoto area last weekend with a boxful of used Japanese-pressed vinyl. ang mura daw.
