Marshall Tucker band on vinyl?

Are there any good quality pressings (that are currently available) of Marshall Tucker Band? I am specifically looking for the song "Can't you see." I have checked the websites of acoustic sounds and music direct (among others). So far, I've only found one used copy with that song, but it was very scratched. Thanks.

Look around for a Capricorn pressing of the 2 LP set "Where We All Belong". A live recording with very good sonics, amazing guitar work from Toy Caldwell, guest fiddlin' from Charlie Daniels and a killer version of "Can't You See". I still have my copy and listen to it quite a bit. The '78 Greatest Hits mentioned above is a compilation LP from previously released tunes, it's good, but all those songs are the studio versions from "Searching For A Rainbow", "Long Hard Ride", etc. "Where We All Belong" is nice as it represents the band in their true element - live, with some really great jams.

My pressing of Where We All Belong on Capricorn sounds great. The live version of "24 Hours at a Time" is worth the price of the whole record.

Dreadhead: right on! Listening to Toy and Tommy Caldwell play off one another on that tune is great, not to mention Charlie Daniels' fiddle playing.

As Siltrains points out "Searching for a Rainbow" is a good one too (Capricorn label). All my original Tucker Band pressings were in a box that vanished in a move a few years back, and I am always on the lookout for replacements.
