Nite Rider is a cowboy that rides heard at nite and sings to calm the cattle. I've never done that but, I don't think Jerry Jeff Walker did either. But he sure
I never called Nite Rider my band. I learned from my Dad at an early age that music is great if you have musicians better than you in the band. Everyone sang and was featured every set. Wayne Moore did Comedy, Old rock,played fiddle, Franky Howard played Steel sang like Marty Robbins and played fiddle,Edna sang everything from Patsy Cline to Beatles played piano and sang harmony,Richard Martin is the best country drummer in the southwest and sings great.I, well I fronted the group, I played the lead guitar and sang a few songs. Mostly I just stood and enjoyed the great musicians. And the wonderful friends we had that supported the band.

Story behind the song
My brother Kert and I played together for years. We recorded this live at the Golden tee lounge in Albuq. I had gotten a half track reel to reel tape recorder from my wife for Christmas and set it up by the bandstand with a couple mixers and 4 mics. I never really cared much for the sound. But, After my brother passed away I started seeing it in a totally different light. I no longer pick apart the mistakes, I'm Just thankful I recorded it. You can tell it was recorded in the early 80's. Because of how he introduced it. Bill
