AMG Review of Very Best of Poco [1999]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine
All Music Guide

Legacy's 1999 reissue of The Very Best of Poco may not contain any songs from the group's reunion, but they're not missed, since this winds up being a generous, 14-track overview of the band at its peak. Yes, there may be a fan favorite or two missing (they may be satiated by the inclusion of a couple of live tracks), but the key songs from Richie Furay and Jim Messina's country-rock outfit are here, making this an excellent representation of the band's best work.
