Anyone else like some late 70's early 80's music ?.....I love it, can't get enough of it. As much as we love this music, we have to realize that you're the one who can put out the fire...

You Can Do Magic was their big comeback hit after like 7 years their last hit being I think was Sister Golden Hair in 1975. It's funny to think that the 80's synthesized You Can Do Magic was the same band that did Horse With No Name a decade before

Oh yes! I used to love this song and it's echo-ey sound effects. I heard this song before I even knew who America was.

And I will concede as well that you're the one who can put out the fire. Yes I haven't forgotten.

Here is an awesome live version from 2005. The same 2 original singers. The guitar sounds great so it's probably the same lead guitarist from that era. And the drummer looks like the same guy from the very early America days.
