The classic rock band Pure Prairie League was a crazy successful country-rock group in the ‘70s and early '80s, riding the same country-tinged rock wave that carried the Eagles, Buffalo Springfield, Poco and The Band to popularity. They released ten albums and enjoyed radio hits with several different configurations of the group, including the songs "Amie" and "Let Me Love You Tonight." Influenced by bluesy drive of the Byrds and the seamless fusing of country and rock first introduced by bands like the Flying Burrito Brothers, PPL benefits from tight slide guitar, dueling solos and plenty of jammy Americana. Having reformed for several festival shows after disbanding in ’88, PPL is now comprised of steel guitar player John David Call, frontman and bass player Mike Reilly, drummer Rick Schell and guitarist Donnie Lee Clark.
