LYCOS RETRIEVER
The Very Best Of
built 202 days ago
Originally a two-LP set, The Very Best of Poco was a decent compilation in its time, assembling the group's best-known songs from singles and album cuts in a straightforward order with no particular surprises. It was reissued with upgraded sound in 1999, and for the very casual fan with a budget to consider the latter is adequate, showing their evolution as a band from the first flourish of their birth, as an offshoot of the Buffalo Springfield, with the same sort of vast potential displayed by the latter group (similarly unrealized by constant membership changes) into one of the premiere country-rock outfits of the 1970s. Anyone serious about a deep enjoyment of the group... will opt for the more extensive and revelatory The Forgotten Trail instead, which contains numerous outtakes and -- no pun -- forgotten tracks. ~ Bruce Eder, All Music Guide

The members of Fedd Hill feel very strongly about the need to give to the community that supports them. Alipone states, "We know what its like to be homeless, so now that we have some resources as a result of our success in music, its time to give back." Trens elaborates, "Our fans come from all walks of life and they have given so much to us, so its only natural that we seek out opportunities to help the people of our city." Rhode Island State Representative Thomas C. Slater was on hand to help out and to thank Fedd Hill for their generous donations of time and resources. "The young men of Fedd Hill see the larger picture. They realize that their success in life and their success in music rests largely on their ability to serve as mature and responsible citizen role models for the city of Providence and the state of Rhode Island."
