Paul Cotton returns to active duty healthy and happy. The group books fewer dates but they schedule shows in every month of the year making for a long year. Poco also returns to New York City and to Europe during the year. Although there were some plans for a new studio album to begin after the touring ended, instead Poco releases another live album.
