Southern Pacific included former members of the Doobie Brothers and Creedence Clearwater Revival who were dedicated to playing modern country music with just a hint of their rock roots. Although the band didn't last long, they did manage to make the country charts on several occasions between 1985-1989. Among the 13 hits included here are "Reno Bound," "New Shade of Blue," "Honey I Dare You," and "Thing About You," which adds Emmylou Harris on vocals. ~ Al Campbell
