Biography

America was a light folk-rock act of the early '70s who had several Top Ten hits, including the number ones "A Horse with No Name" and "Sister Golden Hair." Vocalists/guitarists Dewey Bunnell, Dan Peek, and Gerry Beckley met while they were still in high school in the late '60s; all three were sons of U.S. Air Force officers who were stationed in the U.K. After they completed school in 1970, they… Read more in Amazon's America Store

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice follow-up, September 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Encore: More G.H. (Audio CD)
It took too long for America to come out with a Greatest Hits volume 2, but Rhino finally did it in 1991. This is a collection of later hits, album cuts, plus five songs not available on any other America album. Some songs were produced by legendary Beatles producer George Martin. Contains the hits Today's The Day, You Can Do Magic, The Border, and Right Before Your Eyes. Other strong songs include the original version of Everyone I Meet Is From California, Cornwall Blank, and Another Try. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great second helping, August 18, 2000
By 
Zagnorch (Terra, Sol System) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encore: More G.H. (Audio CD)
I received `Encore' as a gift. I guess it was expected, since I did own their first greatest hits CD `History'. Before I listened to it, there was only one track I recognized on it, `You Can Do Magic', one of my fave soft-rock cuts. I wasn't too keen about the other obscure tunes, but decided to give them a chance.

Fortunately, I found many of the songs just as enjoyable as '...Magic'! And even though these later cuts aren't as well-known as those great moments from their heyday in the early seventies, America's trademark style and sound can surely be recognized in each tune. The major difference between the tracks from their first greatest hits album `History' and this one is that the latter set of songs tend to be faster-paced, and have more synthetic sounds to them. It's basically an updated incarnation of America's style and sound.

Easy listening rarely gets easier than this collection...

'Late!

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice collection for mellow listening., June 16, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Encore: More G.H. (Audio CD)
Contains hits and album cuts not found on their History album, plus 5 songs not found on any other album. The hits include You Can Do Magic, Today's The Day, The Border, and Right Before Your Eyes. The best album cuts, Another Try and Cornwall Blank, are from their earlier albums. A must for any America fan.
