Legacy is the 19th album by the country rock band Poco, released in 1989. The album reunited the five original members of the group (from the Pickin' Up the Pieces album) and contained two top-40 singles, "Call It Love" and "Nothin' to Hide."

Timothy B. Schmit and Paul Cotton were not involved in the making of this album, notwithstanding that they had become more associated with the band than the original members they replaced; Randy Meisner (who only appeared on the first album) and Jim Messina.

Legacy was the second Poco album to be certified gold.
