This uncommon poster was produced for Poco and Lighthouse playing at the Virginia Tech Coliseum on November 19th, 1971. While the Buffalo Springfield was recording their last album LAST TIME AROUND (released July 30, 1968), with recently added member Jim Messina, Jim & Richie Furay discovered they had very similar musical visions, and soon formed Poco, a band forging an innovative direction in music at that time, creating some of the earliest /nascent & highest quality country-rock music of the sixties & seventies.
Poco's first album Pickin' Up The Pieces, one of the earliest examples of country rock, was acclaimed by music critic Bruce Eider as a "startlingly great record, as accomplished as any of Buffalo Springfield's releases and also reminiscent of the Beatles and the Byrds.
The mix of good time songs, fast-paced instrumentals, and overall rosy feelings makes this a great introduction to the band, as well as a landmark in country-rock only slightly less important (but arguably more enjoyable than) Sweetheart of the Rodeo".
