Deliverin' Again

Richie Furay is a celebrated singer and songwriter, whose work spans decades, yet remains vital today. Long before americana was a festival buzzword, Richie Furay helped redefine the boundaries of roots rock music, twice. Although his 1st great band, Buffalo Springfield, lasted barely 2 years, from 1966 to 1968, and released only 3 albums during their time together, they laid the groundwork for the genre, offering a loving blend of country, soul and rock'n'roll swagger. And, soon after that band splintered, he formed Poco, which not only churned out their own classic originals, but also seeded future chart toppers like Loggins and Messina and Eagles.

Back in November 2018, 50 years after Poco debuted at the celebrated Troubadour in Los Angeles, Furay returned with his solo band and performed Poco’s 1971 live alum "Deliverin’" in its entirety. The evening also included some Buffalo Springfield material, as well as Furay’s solo work. Timothy B Schmit, who joined Poco in 1969 and was part of the lineup that recorded "Deliverin’", also contributed guest vocals on a couple songs. The evening was captured for posterity and will be released on April 2nd, 2021, as a double live concert album and DVD, "50th Anniversary : Return To The Troubadour".
