Don't roll your eyes and think there's nothing on
this disc that you'll like. That's what I did when it arrived in
the mail and for the first time since I can't remember when I was
wrong. I was there in the early seventies when this band was tearing
up the charts with their clean harmony driven brand of country rock.
This edition with Fuller and Riley still fronting the band has come
up with an excellent new disc. Adding Fats Kaplan to play all kinds
of stuff was a great move. These are all new songs that manage to
sound like they could have been on any of those early albums. Fresh,
breezy, top notch playing and some catchy tunes make this one a
winner. With a foot in the past and one in the present they have
defied the odds.
You rock!

great site!!!!!!
|
PPL=The Best Band Ever!!!
|
Great Website!

Nice to see you guys back. I have caught your last 2 shows in Denver and they were great....
|
Benn a 'league' listener since I first heard 'fallin' in and out of love' too many years ago to remember, glad to see you're on the road again, any chance of coming to England?
|
I've been a huge fan since 1972. Thanks so much for getting back together. Your concert last year in Redmond, WA was a dream come true (that is, to see you after 30 years of waiting). Keep it up!
|
With the new release Craig Fuller has taken us all the way back home! This disc compares to the first two releases. Craig, please bring us more!
|
Just the right mix of Americana and a little rock thrown in for good measure keeps this ol' hippi happi!
|
all I can say is thanks...I came aboard in '72..and still listen today.
|
Been a fan for a long time. I'd sure like to get some of the earlier stuff on CD. (pre Vince Gill)
|
"Have loved your tunes since the late 70's..." great to see that your back.

After thirty years being a PPL fan this new album is absolutely fantastic!! Where can I purchase it??? You fellas still got it!!

|
Great Music, on the new CD..
|
Glad to see you all back, just ordered your new cd and can't wait to hear it. I was fortunate enough to be in high school in 1971 and can't tell you how much your music meant to me in those very formative years. You guys are the reason I learned to play guitar. Make it to Knoxville Tennessee soon they have an excellent theater here. Keep up the good work, and welcome back.....Darrell

|
I'm a native Waverly, Ohioan, even born in Pike Co hospital. 8-) I'm thrilled when local connections step out of the 'norm' box to achieve much success. I defy normalcy because I've always been labeled an oddball. LOL! Long live the Pure Prairie League legacy!
|
Best band ever! I have traveled to Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Missouri to see you numerous times...please keep it up!
|
Love your music! Amie is my favorite song.
|
Been a fan for 25 years. Can't wait to see you again.

|
I am SO glad that PPL is still making that magical music that inspired me as a student at Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio in the mid 70's - I performed "Amy" as a soloist and with my band. We did my originals as well, but "Amy" was ALWAYS the show-stopper! I just want to say thanks - your music has always meant SO much to me.
|
I've been a fan for about 30 years Finally got to see you play at the Crowne Plaza in November you guys were GREAT!!! Hope to see you play again this year!!!
|
I am so glad you guys are back. I saw you in Cincinnati when you first started in 1973 & have waited until you are back. Life is Good!!
|
Hey Mike! It's great to see you and the band are still at it. Keep up the great sounds.

|

|
Come to Minnesota!
|
PPL HAS BEEN A FAVORITE OF MINE FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS. SINCE THE EARLY TO MID 70'S. SEEING THEM WITH THE CDB AND OTHER SOUTHERN ROCKERS OF THAT ERA. I WOULDN'T HESITATE TO BUY TICKETS IF THEY TOURED HERE IN CONNECTICUT. ANY PLANS?
|
in 1985..my wife is 8 months pregnant and we hear george doing amy..our daughter is now 24 and we always tell her we heard pure prarie league and said...THATS THE NAME...saw you guys open for the riders in passaic and the bottom line in nyc..always a great time..thanks for the music..it still ROCKS
|
Damn, I'm going to be out of town for your Tampa show.
|
I would buy today if i could find your first album. tell mee how to order it i will right now
|
I first heard PPL while serving a tour of duty on Midway Island in the mid 70's. Still listening, still great.
|
Come to infinity hall
|
When will you come in France ?
|
Thank goodness for the internet! It's how I found out that PPL is back. Boy are they--I just got my copy of "All In Good Time", and what can I say but, "Wow!" The guys sound just as great as they did when I bought "Pure Prairie League" back in 1972. The guitars, the lyrics, the vocals--age has done nothing but make this band better, if that's possible. Stay together, guys, and keep making that great music. My favorite song on the "All In Good Time" CD is "I Sure Do Miss You Now." Oh, "Cajun Girl" is right behind it--what a rhythm and fiddle! For some one who grew up in south Louisiana, this is a great listen. Geaux,PPL!

Hey Donnie it is Tim from Indy. Knew you when played at Whiskey River and with Duke. Wondering if you could help with a show in Ohio. Thank You Tim
|
love your music- been a huge fan since 1978!!! Want to see all albums you have, and wondered whether you will have Vince Gill re-join or what...Anywho, keep up the great music...You rock (country rock style, the genre that is no longer existent).
|
Been a fan from day1. Bought first six recordings on 8track. Wish I had all on disk now. Been in my top 5 country rock bands of all time. Sorry, EAGLES have to be number 1. Looking forward to seeing u live @One World Theater in Austin,TX. 2012!
|
I knew these guys well in the mid to late 70's and saw them all over the country from PA to Fl all the way out to CA. I last saw Michael Conner with Heidi in January 2002 or 2003 in Sarasota, FL at a Righteous Brothers concert and took them backstage (my husband grew up with Bill Medley) for all the times I went back stage, on the bus and to the parties I shared with these guys. I'm so sorry to hear of Michael's passing and I'm try to figure out where all Reilly's curls went. I've got tons of old photos that I would love to get posted on here. LOVE you PPL.
|
Hi there Mike, Rick & Donnie, I met you all when you were here in Petoskey this summer. Looking forward to seeing you all again sometime in the near future.
|
LOVED THE ZIONSVILLE, IN CONCERT WHAT A GREAT BUNCH OF GUYS..SHOUT OUT TO YOU MR MIKE REILLY..I WON'T FORGET YOUR KISS..XOXO
|
I would like to ask a special request. My wife, Amy and I are driving up to Bethel Woods for the Friday 11/11 concert. Friday is her 50th birthday. If you could dedicate "Ami" to her it would be awesome. Back when we were dating I was able to have WMMR in Philly do a request on air for me and it has always meant a lot to her and our relationship.
Best Regards,
Tim Britt
|
Do you still sell copies of Takin' the Stage Live? I really love that album!
