Poco and Pure Prairie League @ Boulder Theater

POCO & PURE PRAIRIE LEAGUE One of the first and longest-lasting country-rock groups, Poco had their roots in the dying embers of Buffalo Springfield. After Neil Young and Stephen Stills, the co-founders of that group, exited in the spring of 1968, only guitarist/singer Richie Furay and bassist Jim Messina remained. Pure Prairie League, who exploded out of what was referred to as "the Cincinnati Sound" in 1969 Ohio, has a legacy not only as pioneering country rockers but as a band that influenced both contemporaries and many of today's top country stars.
