Our Take

Ah, AMERICA - the band, not the country (although sometimes their music makes you feel like you're soaring through the vast American landscapes). This Original Album Series provides a generous slice of the band's discography, encapsulating their 70s folk rock heyday.

Kicking things off with their self-titled debut album, AMERICA sets the tone with dreamy harmonies and soothing acoustic guitars. It's like stepping into a time machine and being transported back to a simpler era where the Eagles ruled the airwaves.

Next up is "Homecoming," a more mature offering that showcases the band's growth both lyrically and musically. From the wistful "Ventura Highway" to the iconic "Horse with No Name," this album is a classic in every sense of the word.

"Hat Trick" introduces a more experimental side to AMERICA, blending elements of country and soft rock with their trademark harmonies. While not as immediately catchy as their previous work, it's a grower that rewards repeated listens.

Closing out the set is "Holiday," a breezy collection of songs that encapsulate the carefree spirit of the 70s. With hits like "Tin Man" and "Lonely People," it's the perfect soundtrack for a lazy Sunday morning or a road trip along the coast.

Overall, AMERICA's Original Album Series is a must-have for fans of folk rock and classic 70s music. So grab your headphones, pour yourself a glass of bourbon, and lose yourself in the nostalgic sounds of AMERICA. Cheers!
