Desert Rose Band - Running

This is certainly a good representation of the work the Desert Rose Band did in their prime and a project that remains a favorite. With some solid songwriting by Chris Hillman and a cover of Buck Owens' "Hello Trouble," this second release is a definitive work. With hits like "I Still Believe in You," "Summer Wind," and John Hiatt's "She Don't Love Nobody," there is nothing lacking in either performance, production, or material. Like their first release, 1987's Desert Rose Band, Running was based upon the experience of the band members as musicians, songwriters, and singers who were (and continue to be) an important part of the Bakersfield-Los Angeles music community.
