Founded in 1970 by lead vocalist/guitarist Craig Fuller, bassist Phil Stokes, guitarist Robin Suskind, steel guitar player John David Call, rhythm guitarist George Powell and drummer Tom McGrail. The band named themselves after a temperance union from the 1939 film Dodge City. Pure Prairie League went through several lineup changes before they record their debut studio album the self-titled Pure Prairie League in 1972 for RCA Records. Their second LP which was released later that year became a Top Forty hit a couple of years later thanks to the Top Thirty single "Amie" which was released in 1975 due to its popularity on college radio. Their next two records were big sellers due to the rising popularity of country rock in the mid-seventies.
Fondé en 1970 par le chanteur et guitariste Craig Fuller, le bassiste Phil Stokes, le guitariste Robin Suskind, le guitariste John David Call, le guitariste rythmique George Powell et le batteur Tom McGrail. Le groupe s'est nommé après une union de tempérance du film Dodge City de 1939. Pure Prairie League a subi plusieurs changements de programmation avant d'enregistrer son premier album studio intitulé Pure Prairie League en 1972 pour RCA Records. Leur deuxième album sorti plus tard dans l'année devint un tube de Top Forty quelques années plus tard grâce au single "Amie" du Top Thirty sorti en 1975 en raison de sa popularité à la radio universitaire. Leurs deux albums suivants ont été des gros vendeurs en raison de la popularité croissante du rock country au milieu des années soixante-dix.
