Poco (1974) Bitter Blue - LOST 70s GEMS

This tune from Poco's Contamos album is an underrated Timothy B Schmidt track where he sings over rootsy cowboy rock guitars in a way similar to Starin at the Sky and I Can See Everything; sought of a ridiculously clean, very high pitched falsetto with a slight breathiness that adds a husky sensuality to the countrified posturing. Then there is the stacked gospel chorus and the awesome bridge ' I look outside and find the rain..' with it's slightly down turn ooh's and tumbling modulation.
