Randy Lee Riviere is a wildlife biologist who dedicates much of his life to the preservation of our environment. That passion seeps into many of his songs. He splits his time between his home in Montana and making music in Nashville. Tom Hambridge produced the album, cowrote eight of the fifteen songs on the album and plays drums, percussion and provides backing vocals. He comes out rocking with the story of a mountain man who comes “Downtown” where he can show off some of his songs. On “Big on a Bender” he declares “I feel a bender comin’ down. Sometimes the devil don’t make a sound”. His life on a farm is discussed on the title song stating “I got mud in my ears, in my shorts in fact”. “Bird Watchin’” has a 60’s psychedelic vibe as he says that is what he does when he is home. On “Alabama” he declares “She’s the one took my heart undone” with a riveting fuzzed guitar. “Linden Lane” is a memory of his summer times spent with his Grandma and Grandpa “Who cared about everything everywhere”. He tells ”She has prison tats I don’t really get and metal things I’m not liking one bit but in the “Moonlight” They’re quite a sight”. He bashes “Cynical” people asking “Can you tell me what they have done, nothing at all” in another song with a psychedelic air. He wonders what his life would be “If I Were King” in a soft, moody song. “Mother Lee” starts as an acoustic ballad and builds as he tells her “This life that you give ain’t for me”. He laments the death of John Lennon on “December 1980”. He declares “You Ain’t No Lovin’ Woman” and states in a sorrowful ballad “You’re gonna break the heart of another man”. “Pecos” is a cowboy’s story about his horse which he describes an “ornery bastard”. “On My Way Down” is a pessimist’s look at life dragging him down. He closes with a tribute to the workers “in an old greasy car shop…” and those that make “Dovetail Joints” with “drawers open good”. Randy’s vocals are grizzled, but melodic, sometimes reminding of Neil Young.
