    Thanks, NMB.

    Reminds me, Poco's induction into the Colorado Music HoF is supposed to be broadcast on AXS at some point, everyone keep your eye out!

    Incidentally, how is Richie Furay's last name pronounced? I assumed it was like Fury, but I've been listening to the audiobook of Graham Nash's autobiography (narrated - and occasionally sung - by Nash himself) and he pronounces it with the emphasis very much on the second syllable, like a French name.

    I always assumed it's Fur-AY. I don't know why the 'a' would not be pronounced.

    You can hear Timothy pronounce it about 3/4 of the way through this video.

    I've always pronouced it Fur-ay as well.

    As for Poco, as I said in other threads, I just bought Roses of Cimarron on vinyl from my local FYE store. I bought it because I recognized TBS and decided to give it a try. I hope to listen to it tonight. They had another Poco lp, but it was released after TBS left the band (I think the record was the one released in 1982). I decided to just get Roses of Cimarron to see if I like Poco. If I do, I might pick up the other album if it's still there next month.

    In another thread, Funk 50 posted Tim's songs from Poco. Here's the list:

    Tim's Poco songs are:

    (1970) -
    Hard Luck*l
    Keep On Believin' (sung with Richie Furay)
    Hear That Music

    (1971) -
    From The Inside

    (1972) -
    I Can See Everything
    Restrain

    (1973) -
    Here We Go Again

    (1974) -
    Bitter Blue
    Just Call My Name
    Krikkit's Song (Passing Through)
    Skatin'
    I'll Be Back Again
    Whatever Happened To Your Smile

    (1975) -
    Keep On Tryin'
    Flying Solo

    (1976) -
    Starin' At The Sky
    Just Like Me

    (1977) -
    Stay (Night Until Noon)
    Me And You

    Tim's also got a share of the blame for (ie writing credit) for 18 minute indulgence Nobody's Fool/El Tonto de Nadie, Regresa and sings Steal Away and the live version of Honky Tonk Downstairs which he didn't write. Tim's harmonies are present on lots of other Poco songs too.

    Tim's performed Keep On Tryin' with the Eagles, Ringo Starr's All Starr Band and solo but the only other Poco song he's performed since leaving the band is Furay's*What Am I Gonna Do? which he was going to sing on the record but didn't.

    You forgot to link the video. Is it the Colorado HOF acceptance speech? I'll check it out.

    What made Graham's pronunciation sound different (to me anyway) was his strong emphasis on the second syllable: fur-AY.

    Thanks for posting my list here, Already Gone95.

    I made that CD in August 2007 so there maybe one or two tracks out there that could be added to it. The fact I compiled it shows just how starved of Eagles music I was at the time.

    I had to give the CD a listen this week and I did enjoy it. It's really surprising just how many songs Tim contributed to Poco.

    Tim's the only Eagle yet to release a Greatest Hits compilation. He's definitely got plenty enough material to choose from.

    I always thought it was Fury, too, until I heard it pronounced by Tim.
