2.Ricochet is a country band from Oklahoma best known for their #1 hit "Daddy's Money" (1996).
Ricochet emerged in the spring of 1996 to become one of the most successful new country groups, spending the better part of the year in the Top 40 of the country charts. The band formed in 1993, when drummer Jeff Bryant invited singer/guitarist Heath Wright to join his group Lariat, which also featured Bryant's brother Junior (fiddle/mandolin). Lariat disbanded soon after Wright joined, but he and the Bryants decided to try again under the name Ricochet. They held auditions to complete the band, and several members floated through it in the ensuing months. By the beginning of 1994, the final lineup had fallen into place with the addition of Greg Cook (bass, backing vocals), Teddy Carr (steel guitar), and Eddie Kilgallon (keyboards, rhythm guitar, saxophone, backing vocals). For the next two years, Ricochet toured the South and the West Coast, building up a fan base and developing its energetic, edgy neo-traditional sound. They often spent their downtime rehearsing and writing songs.
The group's original manager was friends with record producer Ron Chancey, who was known for his work with the Oak Ridge Boys. Chancey heard the group and arranged for them to cut a demo. He directed the tape to his son Blake, A&R director for Columbia Records in Nashville. After hearing Ricochet live, Blake Chancey and a handful of other Columbia executives decided to sign the band to a development deal under the direction of producer Ed Seay (Martina McBride, Collin Raye). In early 1995, the deal turned into a full-fledged record contract, and during the spring, the group recorded their first album. For the rest year, they toured the country as a supporting act for Merle Haggard, Doug Stone, and Charlie Daniels.
Ricochet's eponymous debut album, produced by Ron Chancey and Ed Seay, was released in early 1996. Preceded by the Top Five hit single "What Do I Know," the album was a hit and stayed on the charts for more than a year as "Daddy's Money" hit number one and "Love Is Stronger Than Pride" reached the Top Ten. The follow-up album, Blink of an Eye, was released the very next year, but it was a commercial disappointment, even though it produced three minor chart singles. Ricochet charted modestly with another three songs in 1998-1999, tracks intended for an album to be called What a Ride that was not released. In the meantime, the band underwent personnel changes. Jeff Bryant, suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome, left the drum chair, succeeded by Tim Chewning in August 1999, and Shannon Farmer replaced Teddy Carr on steel guitar. Meanwhile, Richochet retooled its third album, finally releasing it in September 2000 as What You Leave Behind.
3. . (NWOBHM quartet) RICOCHET
The band’s sole release during their life-time was the excellent “Midas Light” 7” single, released in 1980.
The single was recorded at Ginger Studios, Aldridge (where WITCHFINDER GENERAL recorded “Burning A Sinner”), and released as a “double B-side” with the nowhere-near-as-good flip-side, “Off The Rails”.
Just 500 copies of the single were pressed, most of which were sold at their gigs.
Later that year Ricochet toured Germany.
At the end of the tour bassist “The Finn” opted to stay on in Germany.
The other three members returned to England and formed a brand new band called THE CANERS.
“The Finn” went on to form a new band called DAMIEN, who got a German record deal.
Over the years “Midas Light” became a highly regarded classic NWOBHM single, much sought after by collectors.
Ricochet got back together for 2 weeks in 2000 and re-recorded “Midas Light” in a Coventry studio, together with some other tracks.
These tracks were made available on CD through the band’s website, as the six song “Midas Light” mini-album.
However the band members then went their seperate ways again.
In 2005 “The Finn” was managing a music festival in Northampton, where he arranged for Ricochet to make a guest appearance.
They played “Midas Light”, “Dreadnought” and “Off The Rails”, and went down a storm.
In 2010 the band members converged to live on the outskirts of Birmingham, for the first time in 30 years.
After meeting up for a beer it transpired that they all missed the Ricochet times and decided to give it one more throw of the dice.
The revived band have recorded a new single, “The Blue Eyed Beggar & The Teenage Captain”, and are reportedly working on a full length album.

Connected at the Heart
Ricochet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I always keep you next to me
When I'm away from you all I do is hurt
I think about you constantly
But you're always with me deep inside
I can feel you when I close my eyes
[Chorus]
Nothing on earth can keep the two of us apart
Time has no meaning
Distance has no power
It's never too late
No matter how long
We're never that far
We are connected at the heart
Every night I get down on my knees and pray
I know God's listening to me
Sometimes I have to work a little on my faith
But I don't have to see Him to believe
Isn't that a little bit like you and me
We're not always eye to eye but I know we
[Chorus]
Part of each other
One and the same
Blood of my blood
Soul of my soul
[Chorus]
We are connected at the heart
Oh, we are connected at the heart
The song 'Connected at the Heart' by Ricochet is a tribute to the power of love in keeping two people together, even when they are separated by distance or time. The song begins with the singer speaking about a picture that he keeps in his pocket all the time. The picture is of someone special who is always on his mind, whether he is near or far away from them. He talks about feeling hurt when he is away from his loved one, but also how he can feel them deep inside of him, even when they are not physically together.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the unbreakable bond that two people share when they are truly in love. The lyrics proclaim that nothing on earth can keep the two of them apart and that time and distance hold no power over their connection. The song also touches on the power of faith and belief, as the singer speaks about getting down on his knees to pray and how he doesn't have to see God to believe in his presence. He draws a comparison to his own relationship, saying that he and his partner may not always see eye to eye, but this does not weaken the strength of their love.
In summary, 'Connected at the Heart' is a song about the power of love, faith and belief to keep two people connected to each other, no matter what. It speaks to the idea that two people can be a part of each other, and that their love is bigger than any obstacles that may come their way.
