Tracks: Dancing The Night Away Love Me Like You Never Will Again Wait 'Til Daddy Finds Out Let's Keep It That Way White Rocket Ridin' Rainbows It's A Cowboy Lovin' Night It Was Always You Knee Deep In Loving You Wings About The Record: Ridin' Rainbows, by Tanya Tucker, marked a bold and controversial shift in the young stars career as she moved from her traditional country roots toward a more pop-oriented and contemporary sound under new management and production by Jerry Goldstein. Recorded in Los Angeles with a team of session musicians known for their work in rock and R B, the album featured lush string arrangements, disco-influenced rhythms, and a glossier production style that alienated many country purists at the time. Standout tracks include the dreamy title song Ridin Rainbows, the playful Dancing the Night Away, and a sultry cover of Knee Deep in the Blues, while fan-favorite Lets Keep It That Way showcased Tuckers maturing vocal delivery. One of the albums most unique moments is Its a Cowboy Lovin Night, a rare foray into western-swing disco that has since gained cult status. The single Ridin Rainbows reached No. 8 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart, giving Tucker one last significant country charting success before her full transition into pop and rock territory in the following years.
