4.0 out of 5 stars i am a closet america fan., March 17, 2007
for someone who loves the velvet underground, the clash, husker du, etc..., it does not really feel cool to admit that you like america. but i do. and i admit it (though you may have noticed that i am writing this under an alias name). this is a fine album. how could you honestly not like it? good songs, fine harmonies, gentle acoustic guitars carrying it all along. c'mon all you snobs out there, give it a chance. this is not bad. it really isn't. a very enjoyable early 70's release of well done folk/rock. and i recommend it. yes, i do.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best albums from the early 70s!, September 3, 2003
A great album! It was a big hit in 1972 and went Platinum in the US. Contains the classic Ventura Highway and the hits Don't Cross the River and Only In Your Heart. Nearly every song on the album received airplay in 1972/1973. Plus it has one of my favorite album covers of all time! Very cool!

5.0 out of 5 stars in a word.."AMERICA", March 16, 2007
What can I say...I like this group and it all started with an awesome album. If you like acoustic driven rock and never heard of this group this is the place to start..you will not be disappointed!!! I bought this cd to replace my old record of it. Well worth every penny!

5.0 out of 5 stars America Comes Home
Growing up in the 60's and 70's I naturally gravitated to the folk rock genre. From groups like the Eagles, Byrds,and Dan Fogelberg I always found solitude in the music. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic America
70s acoustic rock was never better than America's first five CDs. This one includes "Ventura Highway," the greatest pop song ever written. You can't go wrong with this CD.

It seems that these guys lived in the shadow of CSNY, Eagles, and some of the earlier "acoustic" bands that hit the airwaves late 60s early 70's. Read more

Terrific album, superior to the first one. For $12, buy it now and don't be a fool. A lot of good non-"History" songs.
