- “Amie” (1972) Written by Craig Fuller. Though it only reached No. 27 on the Billboard 100, “Amie” remains PPL’s most well-known song. Written and sung by Craig Fuller, “Amie” was first released on the band’s 1972 album, Bustin’ Out, and later became a hit when it was re-released as a single in 1975.
- “Angel #9” (1972) Written by Craig Fuller. In “Angel #9,” the narrator will do anything. He’ll take any risk to be with a girl named Angel. Also off Bustin’ ‘Out, the track precedes another lovelorn song (about the same girl?)
- “Falling In And Out Of Love” (1972) Written by Craig Fuller. Off the band’s second album, Bustin’ Out, which also features string arrangements from the late David Bowie and guitarist Mick Ronson on tracks “Call Me, Tell Me” and “Boulder Skies,” this softer ballad goes into the on-and-off tribulations of love.
- “Two Lane Highway” (1974) Written by Larry Goshorn. The title track of Pure Prairie League’s third album, and their first release following the departure of Fuller, “Two Lane Highway” centers around life on the road and how fast things move, and was written by PPL guitarist Larry Goshorn.
