hen you think of bands like Buffalo Springfield, Poco, and Souther, Hillman and Furay, one name definitely links them all together: Richie Furay. Now, when you add the names Neil Young, Stephen Stills, Kenny Loggins, Timothy B. Schmit, Al Perkins, Paul Cotton, Rusty Young, Mark Volman etc. there is a stunning brand new album from Richie Furay that links these superstars all together called The Heartbeat Of Love.

12 great songs, a dozen rare performances from Furay and his friends bring that sound that we are all familiar with to this new cd. This is his first rock album in almost two decades, and it is cause for a celebration throughout the music industry.

The album opens with a fresh new track called "Forever With You." Loaded with hooks and harmonic melodies, this tune gives the listener a welcome back feeling when they hear the wonderful voice of Richie Furay with a little help from his friends like Jeff Hanna from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

Timothy B. Schmidt lends a hand on "My Heart Is Cryin' Tonight." One of those rich ballads that Richie is famous for, with lyrics that match the emotion of the vocal artistry of both singers "I know a love that is strong, will somehow carry on, But My Heart Is Cryin' Tonight."

Neil Young and Kenny Loggins chime in on the Buffalo Springfield/ Poco revisit of Kind Woman. After a recent tour with Linda Rondstadt, this song was truly one of the biggest crowd pleasers. This 2007 treatment has all of the qualities you would expect from this classic and more!

Another strong track, "Callin' Out Your Name" features Stephen Stills and Richie's daughter Jesse. This is classic Furay. No matter which way you look at it, a hook-laden song, masterful harmonies and number one musicianship. This will be one of your favorite go to songs once you add this album to your collection.
