I am not a fan of them, but I don't hate nor think they suck, I like a few of their tunes though. But I could never get such a big popularity of this band on domestic grounds. And I always consider their music to be more POP and COUNTRY than ROCK. And their sound knows to be pretty one-dimensional at times.

Your opinions about them?
I think they more Country flavored Rock aimed at AOR. They went from a jam band in early 70s to a band with a more and more defined signature sound to become what you said a "pretty one-dimensional" band.

The band I think that would be better defined as "Country Rock" would be Outlaws.

Green Grass and High Tides
