Happy Valentines Day! This Saturday morning at 8 on 105.7 KOKZ, we have a 4 hour countdown show with Casey Kasem as he counts down the top songs from February 17th, 1979. It’s where I found today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 from Poco with “Crazy Love”.
One of the founders of the Southern California country rock sound, Poco was originally formed in 1968 after the the break-up of Buffalo Springfield. The group featured Jim Messina, Randy Meisner, and the one constant through the years, Rusty Young.
“Crazy Love” was the first top 40 hit for the band reaching #17 on the pop chart and it was the #1 Adult Contemporary song of all of 1979. I found a live video of Poco performing “Crazy Love” in 2004, check out today’s Forgotten 45!
