​Pure Prairie League (from the album Back on Track available on Pure Prairie League Record Company) (by Danny McCloskey)
Sky-reaching harmonies and soft Rock strums became a trademark for Pure Prairie League when the band began their musical journey on radio in the 1970’s. They received success in the era, helping to brand not only themselves but escorting the Country Rock genre into the mainstream. After nearly two decades, Pure Prairie League return with Back on Track, their recent release. Staying true to the Country and Southern Rock blend that started their music on a path, the band balance the release with hearts held out and a hefty backbeat when they deliver “A Love Like Yours” while the same emotions are expressed with optimism over the hushed rhythms of “I Believe I Could Fall in Love”. For over fifty years Pure Prairie League has owned their crown of Country Rock pioneers.
 
Stepping into the title track with a rhythmic rumble “Back on Track” hammers out a beat, the fast pace continuing when PPL discuss the relationship of a traveling troubadour and love at home with “I’m the Lucky One” as the fiddle blazes a path into “Six Feet of Snow” and high step on a rapid rhythm to rev the engine for a “Picture Perfect Life”. Sound rises up to create a dream-like mood that kickstarts the confessions in “Modern Problems” as Back on Track drifts towards past heartbreak as “The Beginning” traces a path to true happiness and watches rhythmic ripples surround “Skipping Stones”. Pure Prairie League sail away on an island beat in the “Price of Love” and shake their collective heads to the sway of “Crazy World”. (by Danny McCloskey)
