I was shocked and saddened to hear of Rusty Young’s passing. He was a great musical innovator who never got the credit he deserved. Poco should be in the Rock’n’Roll Hall of Fame. My wife and I had the privilege of seeing Poco in concert twice, most recently February of 2020. The first time we saw the band several years before that, we got to visit with the band after the show. It was an honor to meet Rusty and the rest of the guys. All were very gracious with their time. RIP Rusty. Heaven just gained the greatest pedal steel player ever. Prayers and condolences to Mary and the family. Thank you for sharing Rusty with Poconuts around the world all these years.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Rusty Young. I have been a Poco fan since I first heard “Deliverin”. I was fortunate enough to see them a couple years ago near Ft. Lauderdale and as always they did not disappoint. Was able to meet Rusty after the show and he was so gracious. He was a really incredible musician and a wonderful person. My condolences to his family, band and fans. His music will live on.

POCO has always been my favorite band. I actually got to meet Rusty in the dinner line at a casino where they were to perform that night. He was gracious, funny and human. I saw the band many times while growing up in Southern California, they were always spot on great! Amazing catalog of music that will last forever. You will be missed.
