Bill Robey, Don Falk and Bod Noubarian formed this trio and released this album on Epic in 1973. Back in those days I was living in Alexandria, VA and used to shop at a cool record store in Georgetown called Orpheus. When I first saw this LP I had no idea who these guys were but that never stopped me back then as long as the cover looked interesting. And as usual, I was right about this album. It quickly became one of my favorite records - and it still is. If you like Poco and all the “Country-Rock” gems that came out in the early 70s then you’re gonna love this album. Their cover of “Magic Woman Touch” (which you may know from the Hollies’ ‘Romany’ album or the original from the band "The Greatest Show on Earth") is even better than those. And ’Free Blue’ (track one) is a quintessential specimen of the genre. Two of these guys went on to form a band called Iguana and released an album on United Artists soon after the demise of R,F&B. and you really need to hear that too. (See the link at the bottom of this page) But for now, simply enjoy Robey, Falk & Bod. - Dean Sciarra - ItsAboutMusic.com Play Free Blue Play Magic Woman Touch Play Samples of the entire album Songs on this album are: 1.

Free Blue - without Intro (Bonus Track)  | | 36 years after the release of the Robey, Falk & Bod album, ItsAboutMusic.com is quite pleased to offer you the first solo album by Bill Robey. In many ways this album picks up where "Kentucky Gambler" left off with the same crisp, emotional harmonies and the continued high quality songwriting. This is definitely a most welcome addition to not only the catalog here at IAM but to my own personal collection. - Dean Sciarra - ItsAboutMusic.com Play Wild Irish Rose Play New York Play Samples of the entire album Songs on this album are: 1.
