About The Record:

A Good Feelin' to Know, by Poco, is a standout country rock album that showcases the band's shift toward a louder, harder-rocking sound while retaining their signature vocal harmonies and instrumental interplay. The title track A Good Feelin' to Know, written by Richie Furay, stands out as the band's most recognizable tune from its early years and a perennial fan favorite often praised for its uplifting energy and commercial hook, though it surprisingly failed to become a chart hit. Other highlights include strong contributions from songwriters Paul Cotton and Timothy Schmit, with tracks like And Settlin' Down (the lead single), Ride The Country, I Can See Everything, and the cover of Stephen Stills' Go and Say Goodbye (from Buffalo Springfield days) frequently cited by fans and critics for their quality and variety. A unique aspect is the album's blend of styles, evoking echoes of Buffalo Springfield through its three talented singer-songwriters, and it marked a high point for the classic lineup featuring Furay, Cotton, Rusty Young, Schmit, and George Grantham. Historically significant, the album's relative commercial underperformance deeply discouraged Furay, contributing to his eventual departure after the next release.
