Poco in Holland 1976 "Rose of Cimarron" soundcheck TopPop

European 1976 tour by Poco. Here the soundcheck for 'Rose' for the Dutch TopPop TV show in 1976. Al Garth (Loggins and Messina) had just joined the Fab4. Paul, Rusty, George, Tim and Al are caught 'in action' in this very rare footage I got: enjoy! The clip can be found here: • Poco - Rose Of Cimarro...

If they released a DVD just of that soundcheck, I'd buy it!

Nice to see tidbits of behind the scenes, more goes into it than "Ladies and gentlemen , Poco"..

At 2:10, the drums are Slingerland, but it looks like George (the drummer) replaced it with a Ludwig mount and covered the Ludwig name on the tom holder with the Poco Europe '76 sticker. Snare drum is a Rogers.

Cymbal stands are Ludwig Atlas model.

Is that producer Mike Flicker who produced Poco after LEGEND? 4:09, behind Al Garth.

bands at the time in the 70s just tour EVERYWHERE in europe, records do sell over there, and everybody knows everybody. the good old times of small gigs on big world tours... like IF YOU'RE A BAND that has a label you get to go to europe.

Why a soundcheck when they don't played live?

[@stevegainesthehero]

It’s more a camera check 👍

Somebody get AL GARTH a mike! The former L&M member should have been added to this Fine band’

@@davidcassidy3956 I don’t see anything where he was an official member of Poco, other than a back up musician, in the same way in his role with the Eagles.

Tim Schmidt looks bored...waiting for his Eagles promotion

Timothy was, and remains, a flies-under-the-radar kinda guy.
