Review

Leave Richie to remind us all once more of how good it used to be and how great it can be again. It is not just a good feelin' to know, it's a great feelin' to know-it's the best feelin' to know, and we all-old, new and still to come, owe Richie Furay a huge debt for that. Thanks Richie! --Pete Fornatale-Radio Programer (liner notes)

Absolutely one of the finest voices of our generation, and one of the most respected pioneers of the country rock sound, which he developed alongside his good friends Stephen Stills,Neil Young, Jim Messina, Dewey Martin and Bruce Palmer in Buffalo Springfield, and later with his pals in Poco.

This collection of hits, album staples and radio and fan favorites covers all of his long and still growing career.

This is one for the history books folks! --Joe Reagoso-Executive Producer

What a thrill to hear Mr. Furay belting out the Neil Young penned tunes from the first Buffal Springfield recording. In addition, he covers many of the old Poco favorites with the utmost excellence. It is indeed a "Good Feeling To Know" that the most gifted lead singer from the Springfield is back with a carrer spaning double disc recording.

Richie Furay is the Heart & Soul of what has come to be known as Country-Rock music. His contagious, joyful energy adds an effervescent quality to whatever he does. In this album, Alive, he sings and talks his musical history in a way that you know he was glad to be there. The renditions of his songs from the Buffalo Springfield, Poco, the SHF Band and his solo career, both gospel and secular, are fresh and filled with the vitality that surrounds Richie. I get chills listening to this inspired album. It is a must have for anyone that considers themselves a fan of Country-Rock Music. Thank you, Richie . . .
