The Last Roundup is the 21st album, and third live album, by the
country rock band
Poco.
Recorded live in July 1977 at the
Santa Monica Civic Auditorium during the Indian Summer tour (and "The Dance" done the same month at
Red Rocks Amphitheatre, accompanied by an orchestra), it was intended to be the band's 13th album. However, its release was cancelled by
ABC Records after
Timothy B. Schmit left the band to join
The Eagles. Poco had intended this album to counteract the damage done to the band's career by the release of Poco Live by their former label, and
Richie Furay made a special guest appearance on the album in an effort to boost the album's appeal. It contains mainly music from the post-Furay era. This was Furay's first appearance with the group since his departure after Crazy Eyes.
Richie Furay – vocals on “Magnolia,” vocals and guitar on "Hoe Down / Slow Poke"
Production
Producer:
Poco,
Mark Henry Harman; The album was engineered for release by Mark Omann at Universal Mastering and supervised by John Thaler for Futuredge Music.
