PURE PRAIRIE LEAGUE BUSTIN' OUT VINYL RECORD
Bustin' Out is the second album by American country rock band Pure Prairie League, released by RCA Records in 1972 (see 1972 in music). It features "Falling In and Out of Love," which ends in a segue to their hit song "Amie." Amie then concludes with the main chorus of "Falling In and Out of Love." Because of this interrelationship, many American classic rock and AOR radio stations play the pair of songs as a single track.
The album features a guest appearance by lead guitarist Mick Ronson on the track Angel No. 9. The album ended up becoming far more popular a couple years after its release, during the height of the Country Rock, and Southern Rock boom of the mid 70's. By then, band leader Craig Fuller was no longer in the band due to draft board issues. "Amie" was released as a single in 1973, and began receiving airplay mostly on college radio stations.
Track List "Jazzman" (Ed Holstein) – 2:34 "Angel No. 9" – 4:55 "Leave My Heart Alone" (George Powell) – 4:24 "Early Morning Riser" – 5:05 "Falling In and Out of Love" – 2:12 "Amie" – 4:18 "Boulder Skies" – 4:01 "Angel" – 4:26 "Call Me, Tell Me" – 2:41

Released: 1973
Lift me, won't you lift me above the old routine; Make it nice, play it clean jazzman. When the jazzman's testifyin' a faithless man believes He can sing you into paradise or bring you to your knees. It's a gospel kind of feelin', a touch of Georgia slide, A song of pure revival and a style that's sanctified. Jazzman take my blues away; Make my pain the same as yours with every change you play. Jazzman, oh jazzman. When the jazzman's signifyin', and the band is windin' low. It's the late night side of morning in the darkness of his soul. He can fill a room with sadness as he fills his horn with tears. He can cry like a fallen angel when risin' time is near. Jazzman take my blues away; Make my pain the same as yours with every change you play. Oh lift me, won't you lift me with ev'ry turn around; Play it sweetly, take me down, oh jazzman. -Jazzman Song Lyrics
First of all, musically this album deserves far better than 3 stars. This is Pure Praire League's best album, released before the unfortunate departure of Craig Fuller. There is a nice, mellow, easygoing feel to this album, also somewhat apparent on thier debut album but severely lacking on most of their later efforts. This album contains the song the band is perhaps best known for, "Amie", which is bookended by the beautiful, acoustic "Fallin' In And Out Of Love", which was not included on the single version. -Album Review
