From their beginnings in mid-Sixties Ohio as friends playing cover tunes to the present-day unit featuring drummer Scott Thompson, bassist Jared Camic, keyboard master Randy Harper, guitar ace/vocalist Jeff Zona, and pedal steel/saxophonist John Heinrich, Pure Prairie League continues to embellish the rich 50-plus-year history of one of Country-Rock’s pioneering forces. As one reviewer wrote: “PPL’s sound combines sweet memories with edgy, contemporary muscle. Their vocals are as strong as Kentucky moonshine and the musicianship and performance skills are as sharp as a straight razor.”
Their eponymous first album—featuring the Norman Rockwell/Saturday Evening Post cover introducing their trademark cowpoke “Sad Luke”—is hailed as a major early influence in the rise of Country-Rock. Their second effort, the multi-platinum Bustin’ Out, brought the Craig Fuller-penned classic “Amie,” along with other gems of the genre. With Two Lane Highway, nine more albums, and countless shows, a legacy has been forged and enriched by contributions from notable members including co-founder George Ed Powell, Cincinnati’s Goshorn Brothers, Gary Burr, Vince Gill, Jeff Wilson, Curtis Wright, and guest appearances from Chet Atkins, Johnny Gimble, Emmylou Harris, David Sanborn, Don Felder, Nicolette Larson, Rosemary Butler, and many more.
Now in their sixth decade, Pure Prairie League continues to lead the way for a new generation of Country-Rockers who cite PPL as a major influence. With the release of their new album Back On Track, PPL brings it all back home with a dozen new songs that complete the circle begun in 1970 and continuing to this day.
