Marshall Tucker Band - Running Like The Wind (1979 us, amazing pluralistic southern rock, 2005 remaster)



After the collapse of their record label, Capricorn, Marshall Tucker Band jumped to Warner Bros. The band's first album for their new home found them refining their blend of rock, country, R&B and jazz on a set of songs that mostly deal with life on the road ("Running Like the Wind") as well as the wives and girlfriends left behind ("Melody Ann," "My Best Friend"). In all, it’s probably Marshall Tucker Band's most bittersweet album, and it connected with fans, who made it a To 30 album.
