Fire On The Mountain/Searchin' For A Rainbow/Walkin' & Talkin'/Virginia/Bob Away My Blues/Keeps Me From All Wrong/Bound & Determined/Can't You See
Searchin’ For A Rainbow was the most commercially successful album from the Southern rock Marshall Tucker Band. They enjoyed some popularity in the USA during the mid 1970s although still a long way behind the Allman Brothers. (US:15)
“Marshall Tucker take a left turn to do a mostly unplugged album. Despite a few not-so-great songs, there are enough gems here to make it all worthwhile.”
“If you are a fan of Southern rock from the 70s, I think you'll find Marshall Tucker will suit your tastes. There are a couple of slower tempo tunes, but the crux of the album is rock with good harmonies.”
“They're a kind of band where you like only half the tracks on each album but you buy the albums because the music is so good.”
“With Searchin' For A Rainbow, The Marshall Tucker Band retreated somewhat from the grittier sounds of Where We All Belong without abandoning their country and blues roots.”
“I'm buying this album, unheard, on the strength of Can't You See, which is everything a ballad should be, soulful without being ponderous, and with a beautiful melody. If the rest of the album is as good as that song, it's worth it.”
