5 out of 5 stars The Bottom Line..........2007-04-01

All the finest ingredients of rock, country, blues, and jazz blended into a down-home gumbo as only The (original) Marshall Tucker Band could do it! The remastered series sounds superb audibly, and the packaging is beautifully restored- complete with historic photos and interesting liner notes. The Marshall Tucker Band remastered recordings of the original band- "Self Titled" through "Tenth"- are well worth the investment.

5 out of 5 stars Marshall Tucker Join Warner Brothers In Style.......2005-05-20

With RUNNING LIKE THE WIND, the Marshall Tucker Band joined Warner Brothers Records, and the results were great. Except for the jazz-funk abomination, "Last Of The Singing Cowboys", the album is great, and features numerous excellent songs. This album shows that, contrary to popular belief, MTB did not lose it immediately after the jump to Warners.

    4 out of 5 stars for the most part, a good cd........2004-04-08

    The title song is kind of aimless, not really going anywhere and taking its time getting there. You gotta love the flute playing, though, in it. I have no idea why I respect bands that play unorthodox instruments on a rock cd, but I do and I give them more leeway than I would other bands because of their originality. Last of the Singing Cowboys could easily be early Chicago singing it, but I like the horn section on it. What bugs me about that song is it is about a cowboy, but there is literally no country flavor to it. It's kind of a misnomer in that sense. Highlight of the album is Unto These Hills, just a really good southern rock song. It's not a bad cd by any stretch, but a perfect five star cd? I can't bring myself to do it. The weakness of Singing Cowboys and the title track is too much to overcome. Anyway, the rest of the cd is vintage Tucker band, and I really like it. Good cd, just not great.

    5 out of 5 stars Top Notch Stuff from a Super-Talented Band.......2003-09-30

    This one is well worth buying - I bought it new when it came out, and 24 years later, it's still great stuff.

    I saw them live twice in the early 80's - they were as tight a band and as talented a band as they come.

    Long live MTB!

    5 out of 5 stars Yowsah!!!!!!!!.......2000-09-04

    How do yah' describe a blend of southern rock, jazz, and sumpthin' else I can't put a label on??? Simply put.... good, real good music!!!! Last of the Singin' Cowboys is a fast-paced ballad-type tune that can actually bring a tear to the eye. Runnin' Like the Wind... the title tune... is a knee jerker!!!!

    This album is in my personal top-100 album list. Try it!!! You'll probably like it!!! If not.... heck... try Hanson or the Spice Girls!!!!!! Ackkkkk!!!!!!!

    5 out of 5 stars Marshall Tucker Band - Running Like The Wind.......2000-08-21

    This is the only MT album (vinyl) I never had - I had the cassette way back in the late 70's and 80's - and of course that absolutely wore out - I looked for years for a used album or a cassette but it was out of print. I knew it was going to be re-released, and I just couldn't wait. It is by far one of their best and I am so glad I can hear it again.

    Absolutely! One of my favorite Tucker Recordings + my favorite song "Last of the Singing Cowboys". If your a southern-rock fan you must own this CD. It has been too long a wait for this to become available in CD format. And don't forget to purchase "Tenth", equally outstanding....Peace.
