ALBUM

The Amazing Rhythm Aces (1979)

Their self-titled record came near the end of their original run on ABC/MCA, as the band's commercial momentum was winding down heading into the new decade. It is a relatively lean set that sits within their usual mix of country-leaning rock and roots-oriented songwriting.

The Amazing Rhythm Aces

The Amazing Rhythm Aces are an American country rock group that formed in Memphis, Tennessee in the early 1970s. Their music pulls from rock, country, blues, R&B, folk, and other American roots styles, and the band has always resisted being pinned to a single genre. They scored their biggest moment with the 1975 hit 'Third Rate Romance' and won a Grammy in 1976 for Best Country Vocal Performance by a Group.
