  Good Rockin' Tonight: Pure Prairie League
Pure Prairie League was a successful country-rock band during the 1970s and early '80s,formed in Columbus, OH, in 1969.
In late 1974, Pure Prairie League's touring began to pay off as radio stations started playing "Amie," a song from Bustin' Out, leading RCA to issue the song as a single, reissue the album, and re-sign the band.
Through the years PPL has undergone a slew of personnel changes, including the addition of Vince Gill in 1978 who stuck around for three albums.

The movie's "Pure Prairie League" was the woman's temperance union attempting to clean up Kansas' most lawless town.
PPL in the new millenium may be a curious prospect to band members, but the bands longevity is a testament of the timelessness of the music.
As they write for a new project, they've returned to their roots--no sax, but peddle steel--and it's no surprise that after all these years their sound is what Country Radio is about, proving good music is good music no matter when it's made or played--and you can go home again.

 St. Charles : Entertainment : Concerts & Events : PURE PRAIRIE LEAGUE
The legacy of Pure Prairie League goes back to 1969 in Southern Ohio, when the band was “discovered” in a Cleveland club by an RCA scout.
After a short hiatus, Pure Prairie League went back in the studio in 1975 and released Two Lane Highway, an album celebrated by critics and fans alike, featuring guest artists Chet Atkins on guitar and the pure, sweet vocals of Emmylou Harris, in addition to its own superb lineup.
Pure Prairie League’s longevity is testament to the timelessness of the band’s music — a little bit country, a little bit rock ‘n’ roll -- and the same tight harmonies, pure melodies and driving energy that has created a faithful following for over three decades.

As one of country-rock's most appealing groups, Pure Prairie League contributed to the late-'70s and early-'80 era of musical interbreeding which made them firm FM radio staples, as well as country music mainstays.
Their highest charted single, "Let Me Love You Tonight" at number ten in 1980, was where country superstar Vince Gill began singing lead for the band and was their third vocalist.
Although Pure Prairie League weren't given quite the amount of attention they deserved, the music they produced befriended fans of both country and AOR.
