And don't forget they released I and II in 1969. Three great albums in two years.

The problem with these guys is they always played nothing but - as my parents generation put it "that earsplitting, caterwauling, loud, indicipherable rock and roll crap."  Sublime tune. |

Always liked this song and the album has other fine ones on it. Someone said there's a mandolin on this one but I sure don't hear it.

Betting they'll never show up in Nevada at all, unless it's Vegas. Still - I just love this song. Always have - some of my best writing has come from this song, and this album. Solid 10. |

American Pie is still one of the greatest rock-era songs. No shame in that. (And, hey, Horse With No Name isn't so bad. At least it wasn't Muskrat Love. :) ) |

Maybe the music from "back then" is better to you because you were a high-school kid when you first heard it. What you're saying is pretty much the same sentiment that many people who were born in the 1930's and 40's said about the music of the 1960's and 70's. |
