"It's about time that they released the 2nd album of FOOL'S GOLD on CD. When you listen to Mr. Lucky you will see how the band progressed from being DAN FOGELBERG'S back up band to a group that could stand on it's own two feet. The songs on this CD are much better than the 1st FOOL'S GOLD CD, not to say the 1st one was bad but they really improved the sound on this one. The song CAPTAIN is my favorite one on this CD, it tells a great story. I just wished they would of stayed together for more albums.... The two main front men for the group are DENNY HENSON and TOM KELLY they did all of the singing. I don't know what DENNY HENSON is up to these days but TOM KELLY is still in the industry singing back-up vocals on many artist CD projects. So enjoy this one it's the last from a great sounding band from the country rock days of the 70's...they truly were GOLD!"

"Speaking as another one of those "old rockers" who supposedly doesn't know anything about music, I would like to submit Fools Gold for your approval. This was the kind of Music (yes capital M) that us old folks were fortunate to live.

That is before we entered the current musical desert wasteland (MDW). Super voices, lyrics you can understand, along with great arrangements--it doesn't get much better than this. Dan Fogelberg, God rest his talented soul, sure did know talent when he heard it. I am so glad these are available on CD now. Don't wait! Get the two Fools Gold CD's while they're still available."
