We were touring a lot at that fourth dimension and we were playing really well together. All of us were on the same wavelength. Joe was at the top of his form and was doing amazing things with his guitar. We were so busy that we didn't have time to write many songs so nosotros found ourselves sitting in the studio looking at each other and saying, "Here nosotros are, at present what?" I remember that the mood was proficient, and our producer Pecker Szymczyk was willing to try anything, so we let the tape gyre and started jamming. A few days later we had "Funk #49," "The Bomber," and "Adult female," songs that turned into peachy live concert tunes. Bill used to play the tunes dorsum in the control room at ear shattering volume and we really got psyched! We even blew up the brand new playback speakers at The Tape Plant in Los Angeles during the suspension in "The Bomber"! (Tin't accept these guys anywhere!). During that fourth dimension Joe had some beautiful acoustic songs that he had come with, so we decided to make "Rides Over again" half electrical and half audio-visual. One of my favorite Joe acoustic tunes was "Garden Gate." An absolute gem. We felt very free musically during this album and that feeling led to some actually inventive playing. We made "The Bomber" into a musical suite and put our versions of "Bolero" and "Cast Your Fate To The Current of air" right in the middle of it. Pretty exciting at the fourth dimension! All in all, a great time and an album that we knew would be really good. – Dale Peters Recording "Rides Again" was a completely unlike feeling from the offset album. By the fourth dimension we began preparing for this one, we had some small success with "Yer' Album," and I believe we felt some pressure level to make this one Dandy! We had been touring fairly relentlessly and had not taken the necessary fourth dimension to prepare an album's worth of new fabric. However, deadlines loomed, and when we went to Los Angeles to begin the new album at The Tape Institute, we had only "Funk #49" set up to get. The Tape Establish was brand new – I don't retrieve anyone had used it yet, and man, was information technology state-of-the-fine art! Information technology was the coolest studio we had always seen, right downward to the hot tub! It was a terrific temper in which to create, and we did manage to get down a number of bones tracks before nosotros had to hitting the route again. I recollect recording the bones track for "The Bomber." I also recall taking a few hours off one night to go out to a order on the Sunset Strip to hear our quondam guitarist, Glen Schwartz, and his band, Pacific Gas And Electric. The opener that night was Poco. They were brand new and we loved them. We had finished a track for the album that was screaming for a steel guitar function ("There I Get Once more"), and we went right onto the phase to convince Rusty Young to come by the studio and play information technology for us! I as well fondly retrieve cutting the track "Ashes, The Rain And I." No drums, yet still a favorite of mine!! I contributed by lying face down on the floor between Joe and Dale. I also recall the comprehend shoot for "Rides Again." Again, no cover upkeep, but our road manager, Tom Wright, was a fine photographer. We were on the road, playing a small society in western Massachusetts. In those days, we had no money for hotels, so we were staying with a band nosotros met in Cleveland once. They had a huge house they shared with a motorcycle gang, and we were welcome there. One morn, Tom was in the mood to take some photos and he kept eyeing those cute bikes. But it was January, and we were all hesitant to enquire the bikers if nosotros could have their bikes out into a foot of snow. Tom finally asked and they were excited to be a part of the shoot. Nosotros were blown away when they started the bikes right there in the living room and rode them right off the front end porch into the snow! To this twenty-four hours, I honey that photograph! – Jim Fox "Rides Again" was a logical extension of "Yer' Anthology," in that the ring was in a very creative phase and nosotros had been introduced to the earth of record production by B.S. The spontaneous functioning ability was still there (i.e.: "Funk #49"), but we were besides laying basic tracks, overdubbing, and editing stuff together to makes "pieces" of music similar "The Bomber." Too, nosotros were in Los Angeles a lot in Studio A in the Record Plant on 3rd Street, and I spent a lot of time in complete awe of the people in Studios B & C (Stevie Wonder, etc.). This was a very favorite time in my life. Playing live and recording total time. – Joe Walsh O88 112 283-2
