"Sandman" is a great tune.

Is there a song written or sung by America I don't like? Thank you Dan Peek, Dewey Bunnell, and Gerry Beckley.

Even their first hit "A Horse With No Name", chording such simple chords a beginner can play it, but is neverthless a superb development exercise in itself of strum pattern, timing, emphasis and phrasing to render it familiarly pleasing to the ear. Also an ideal song to use for practising vocal accompaniment due to its simplicity, the workload permitting focus on vocals.

I love so many of their tunes its hard to pick a favourite, but if I had to, it's one of their lesser known songs from their "Hat Trick" album. "Rainbow Song". There's just something about it that catches my ear and stirs my emotion.
