Free Music Notes for America
Free Music Review: Here Comes America
Hit: 5 Stars
I got the vinyl of this one years ago and never thought as time went on that this one would stand the test of time but it did! When "Horse With No Name" came out I really thought it was another Neil Young follow-up to "Heart Of Gold". Well, they had a few singles off this album, another being "I Need You" and had a gold album. The CD is great even today and highly recommend it as well as seeing them "Live" which I did a few years back. visit my website "Judemac Forever" google it and say "Hi". One other side note, the songs pulled off this one for the America Greatest Hits collection in the 1970's were remixed by George Martin of Beatles fame.Free Music Review: A True Gem

I was a junior in high school when this album hit the airwaves...Hooked on America ever since...they were ahead of their time when it came to their craft...They are still going strong...Thanks for the memories.Free Music Review: Unplugged before there was an MTV!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is an outstanding album! It was a huge hit in 1972, spent five weeks at number 1 on the album charts, and went PLATINUM in the days when few albums did. While some of the lyrics may be trite (most of the songs were written while they were teenagers) the music is GREAT! If you love acoustic guitars, this album is a must. It includes their first number 1 hit single, Horse With No Name and another big hit I Need You. Several other songs received significant airplay on stations including Three Roses, Sandman, and Never Found The Time. The only weak song on the album is Pigeon Song. Highly recommended if you like acoustic guitar music!
While this is a great album, this release of it is kind of expensive and you can find other CD's of this album for less.
Free Music Review: The best acoustic rock album ever
Hit: 5 Stars
Hook laden guitar work, trippy lyrics, beautiful vocal harmonies. This record has it all. Despite alot of commercial success, America never got the respect. The first 3 albums (America, Homecoming, and Hat Trick) are acoustic rock masterpieces. Critics hated these guys and wrote them off as CSN ripoffs but the truth is nobody did this type of music better than America. Nobody. Free Music Review: Whew....
Hit: 4 Stars
I don't know how but somehow I missed out on this album when I was a kid. I guess I was put off by the Top 40 overplay by the AM radio back in the day....I'm just now coming back to re-discover America and I really understand why this album was so popular. I do believe they become overly saccharin on this album buy hey, that's America. This is a really, really good album that is well worth owning and certain to be listened to over and over again.
