Poco


"Cowboys & Englishmen" is a 1982 studio album by the American country rock band Poco. Though the LP wasn't a commercial success, it has gained recognition over the years for the unique blend of rock and country tunes it presented. The album was a follow-up to Poco's successful "Ghost Town", and while it didn't achieve the same level of commercial success, it maintained the band's signature sound. The lineup for "Cowboys & Englishmen" included Rusty Young, Paul Cotton, Charlie Harrison, Steve Chapman, and Kim Bullard - a testament to Poco's tendency for lineup shifts. The album, composed of ten tracks, brought a distinct sound that was essentially a blend of country rock with elements of pop. Some of the notable tracks include "Feudin'", "No Relief in Sight", and "Sweet Lovin'". Despite the lack of commercial success, the album has been appreciated by fans for the band's sincere and polished performance. It remains a significant part of Poco's discography and an exemplar of their persistence and continuity despite the tumultuous nature of the music industry.
