Poco ~ Soaring Like Eagles, 2007 original CDr, Limited Edition / Not For Sale

2007 original New Braunfels Historical Records #037 Limited Edition CDr pressing, Numbered #1 of only 2 copies made.  Recorded live at Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey (USA), May 5, 1972.  This concert came after the release of their 4th album "From The Inside" (Sept. 1971).  Jim Messina had left the band in 1970 (to form Loggins & Messina with Kenny Loggins) and had been replaced by Paul Cotton (from The Illinois Speed Press).   The title of this live set comes from the fact that Poco (since their formation in 1968) "were the blueprint" for the later band The Eagles!
