Amie (What You Wanna Do) - Pure Prairie League cover

[@dodgermartin4895]

Toni is a bonafide flatpicker, she's "Bluegrass Good," which is the highest compliment I can give to any guitar player.

[@mikehillier6441]

I lost my sister, Amy, a few years ago and hearing this song was just what I needed this morning. Thank you.

[@tjtaggart6494]

Truly sorry for your loss. It's a beautiful song and these ladies perform it to perfection. I'm sure they're pleased that their rendition has been of comfort to you when you were in need. I pray that this time of healing will be a comforting time. Blessings to you and yours.

[@Bobywan75]

Your covers are always a treat. I like that Toni sings more often.

[@WilliamTomaselli1]

Yes

[@purplecowideal]

Definitely nice to hear more Toni, she’s got a really nice voice.

[@jltsoyowdycjltsoyowdyc1076]

Me too, but man Toni really pulls the feel out of that guitar. I love these two, I will go to see them when the world turns back normal. Preferably at like a summer music fest.

[@acousticshadow4032]

Indeed!

[@kevinbishop6582]

Yes very nice job.

[@steingo]

So what else is new?

[@Roadhardd]

Toni’s harmony hits you like sipping a heated snifter of Grand Marnier in the flickering shadows of the fire; warm, sweet, and comforting.

[@lilbrav6335]

🤣

[@guermeisterdoodlebug7980]

On point and nicely expressive. I like it.

[@charlie-obrien]

Grand Marnier!? You must be a child of the seventies! Lol

[@matthewspencer5086]

There was a time when I was so keen on Grand Marnier that I filled a hip-flask with it. This was very bad for the lining of the hip-flask, which was designed for undiluted Jura Malt. But that's a perfect description of Toni's singing and I think she will be very flattered by it.

[@ianmorrison2003]

Was that sentence a one-off, or are you an actual writer? Beautifully conjured in my humble opinion.

[@MultiBaldEagle]

I think I'm in love. Their harmonies are beautiful and the sound of the 6 string and 12 string together...MAN.....awesomeness perfected. Oh yea...and Toni's high harmonies.

[@31763660]

My mom passed in 1981. I first heard this song just before she got sick... around 1977. I listened this around when she died... Love this version. thanks!!!!!

[@davefroman4700]

I love hearing Toni singing too these days.

[@jonthebru]

You two never disappoint.

[@danbirt1]

Nice! Great to see Toni singing some lead!

[@MikeeStringfellow]

You two are perfect examples of the universe placing two people together whose innate spirit and talent give us this beautiful music. But as an old musician, what may not be apparent to some is the countless hours and endless dedication you've put in to hone your craft. So good. Can't wait for what's next.

[@schienenlaufer697]

Well spoken, Sir! As a musician having played for over 60 years I agree to each and every word you have spoken. I detected these gifted young ladies only some months ago for myself and since then I listen to all their videos, being more and more enthusiastic about the perfect craftsmanship combined with a simplicity that needs no big show, but comes from a big heart. Greetings from Hamburg Germany

[@JohnKoellischSongwriter1]

I’m an old guy, so I love that you cover a lot of tunes from my younger years. I actually used to perform this tune in clubs in Southern California back in the 1970’s. Your original tunes are also amazing and very refreshing with some of the same qualities & done extremely well! Wishing you all well and many years of happy, creative music endeavors!

[@mikesnyder1788]

Loving this soft and subtle sound! So glad I just discovered your station! Thanks and thanks and ever thanks!

[@orsie200]

Nice job! My husband said to me while we listened: “I played that song about a million times.” He’s a musician, now semi-retired after many years, about 15,000 hours on stage in the Twin Cities mostly, being trained (classic) in piano since age 5 and violin since age 9. He plays 5 instruments. We have our own music studio here in Iowa (Euphonic Studio, LLC) which we closed to the public due to pandemic. He has taught music since 1968. All this is to say we’re both music lovers, and we appreciate you so very much. We had fun singing along with you on this one. ~ Lori Parrish Niemi ~

A fire in the hearth, snow on the ground, a cozy couch or bear skin rug, a warm drink and y'all singing Amie. A slice of heaven. For now, I love your rendition and the ease with which you present it. What a great performance.

[@guynelson8667]

Guitar harmonies!!!

[@NiceChristianMan]

Toni played the solo note for note... Bravo!!! You gotta do that on iconic songs like this and she always does..... Good stuff....

[@MindlessZombie2006]

Lovely harmonies, and the 12-string rings like a bell. Beautiful!

[@paddymurph]

I knew there would be a comment about the 12 string without scrolling too far!!!! :)

[@Rocketsong]

Those Martin X-series 12-strings don't get the respect they deserve. They are shockingly good for the price.

[@grahzerify]

MESMERIZING!!! CHARISMATIC!!! Not since the Indigo Girls have I been so glued to the harmony and beauty of these two and their music!!!

[@dealzright]

The solo is one of the best known in country rock music. Toni does a stellar job. I wonder if Toni would be willing to do a tutorial on that solo.It certainly would garner tons of views. Great job as always, guys. Anything less from you would surprise the snot out of me.

[@bradking2053]

Wonderful performance. I was a part of the PPL birth in 1973. This is the reason we love music. Craig Fuller and the guys nailed it and so did you!

[@MrPhilfridge]

Mmm.....the birth of PPL in '73......the band was formed in late 1970 . So who are you

[@dllavid]

Ladies … how wonderful to listen to your music ! I grew up, listening to bluegrass, classic country music, and southern gospel quartet, singing ! Performing bluegrass, music, several years up and down the eastern seaboard of the United States. You’re excellent choice of music, songs, and presentation are superb. It is obvious, you are true musicians, and sing from the soul! A real pleasure to listen to you.

[@frederickglasser5617]

Ladies, I've been listening to Amie for nearly 50 years. I still have my vinyl of Bustin' Out. I HAVE TO SAY: that Craig Lee Fuller would be very, very proud of your rendition. Reina: your vocals, especially on the outro, which is a coda of Fallin' In and Out of Love With You was quite impressive. It's such a tough vocal. And Toni, some pretty sweet picking on your guitar. FYI, the complete title of the song is just "Amie." NBD. Just shows that you two are human.

[@johns.4331]

Perfect as usual.

[@stephenagosto6198]

A great song, also perfect for your guitars and voices. Great choice and very nicely done!

[@gailgomez9155]

These 2 compliment each other do beautifully.

[@guermeisterdoodlebug7980]

I can’t explain why I was surprised you chose that song but I’m glad you did. For me it’s one of those timeless songs, not trendy, never goes out of style. By the way, nice guitar work by both.

[@lamars2486]

I used to go into Amie's honky tonk in nashville early 1970s ... and would drop all my quarters into the juke box and play this song over and over and over ... it was the guitars that got me hooked then the harmonies. Amy told me one time, "if you play that damn song one more time, I'm throwing this beer mug at you." I just dropped more quarters. It got the song on all the old time nashville honky tonk's jukeboxes. (naww, that part is my imagination 😊). GREAT COVER, GREAT PICKING AND HARMONY.

[@johnnyo5915]

Dang, I thought PPL and Vince Gill did a great job as lead singer on this back in the day, but this version is FANTASTIC!! Thank you❤

[@jayphilbin2871]

[@mayflowerlash11]

I'm listening to this as part of Elise Trouw's mix. Two acoustic guitars, harmonies and magic happens. I'm sure you two don't know how great you are. You are laying down a body of music that will one day be considered classic. Reina singing the low notes, Toni's fingertips dancing across the strings. Pure magic.

[@tedszweb5268]

The song that got me interested in Country Music way back when.

[@gantte]

Giant smile on my face for this one - WOW! LOVED IT! Thank you!

[@michaelberes93]

Palace theater Waterbury, CT my first concert, 1970 something. Headliners included Marshall Tucker, pure prairie league and Johnathan Edwards. Up first was PPL where they entered on a stagecoach; thank you Hells Angels guys for great seats, give a guy a beer and joint and you were loved temporarily l guess; in doses at young fun age Tucker band, Great hillbilly band Johnathan Edwards where he taught me to lay around the shanty and put a good buzz on. Still at it my sixties

[@decastring]

What a great cover! I love the arrangement, the interplay between the vocal parts. Toni's single picking, well, I could listen to her all afternoon. Thank you for sharing with us!

[@calito44]

Toni is the guitar player you fight to the dead to have it in your band or in your record session. She is not a schredder granted, but damn!! she always have the right note at the right time. What else can you ask ?

[@sockhawk4675]

Wow! The harmony, minor chord shifting, your voices, and just plain pick'n power! Well done ladies! 😀. 🤠

Loved the rendition. As I always say no 70's pop or rock song was complete without an obligatory guitar solo and Toni did is right!!! Simply loved it. You girls ROCK!!!!

In HS when Bustin' Out released and on AOR FM stations they always seemed to play Fallen In And Out Of Love and Aime together. Two tracks together in the middle of the album and explains the very end of Aime.

[@getsmart6765]

Old guy here, I graduated high school the year Bustin' Out was released. I LOVE your voices and instrumental skills, especially enjoyed your recent Hotel California release on YT, however.... I would have been overjoyed to hear this cover with the three part harmony of the original and in doublette format (preceded by Falling In and Out of Love). Those two go hand-in-hand and should not be separated. I get it - its your creative effort and it is what it is. Yet I know I'm not alone in yearning to hear these two songs covered by your group with three beautiful voices with three guitars. I hope you'll consider recording it one more time in that way. Its a classic that deserves the fresh sound that your group excels at providing. Best wishes to you all!

[@vanessaweis2859]

Expertly done! You two were so into it! Just loved it. Beautiful ending Reina

[@divergentone7491]

You two have inspired me to free my guitar from the closet, restring, and get busy reintroducing myself to my instrument. I used to play a lot in the 70's and 80's then life got in the way.

Always anxious to hear what's next with you two. Stay safe and well. See you back here next Sunday. Oh Reina, nice job on the interview/listening party too.

[@KD8IZD]

Well, coming across your cover made me realize that this song became lost to me over the years and never realizing PPL did this song. I’m 32 and don’t have a lot of exposure to their music, so having only ever really “found” their song “Let Me Love You Tonight” and seeing their name in the title really confused me for a minute. “Amie” is a great song, I just didn’t realize who it was after a LONG time.
