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.

Ricochet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That girl was born to shake it
Stompin' on the hardwood floor
Like she's gonna break it
She's the main attraction
How can I get in on the action
Well there's only one way to get next to her
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
I'm a roper and rider
I'm a lover and a fighter
I'm a mud-slingin' son-of-a-gun
And a 4-wheel driver
But tonight I'm confessin'
I might need her to give me a lesson
Say baby can you teach these old boots to burn
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
Takin' my number and waitin' my turn
Cowboy's comin' from miles around
Just to be her partner when the two-step comes around
Honey, please won't you show me
I might fall, baby, you'd better hold me
Yeah, bein' out here takes a lotta nerve
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
Takin' my number and waitin' my turn
Cowboy's comin' from miles around
Just to be her partner when the two-step comes around
It might take me forever
But I'll follow you 'til I get better
We can go all night as far as I'm concerned
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
Baby can you teach these old boots to burn
I can't, I can't, I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
The lyrics of Ricochet's song "Can't Dance" showcase a man who is captivated by a woman's dancing and is determined to learn to dance just to be close to her. He admires her dancing skills, describing how effortlessly she moves and stomps on the hardwood floor while other people struggle to keep up with her. The man reveals that he is a roper, rider, lover, fighter, mudslinging son-of-a-gun, and a 4-wheel driver, but he confesses that he can't dance. However, he is willing to learn how to dance, even if it takes him forever.
He wants to impress the girl by becoming her dance partner and taking her out for a spin around the floor. Cowboy's from miles around come just to be her partner when the two-step comes around, so he needs to put some extra effort to catch up with her level of dancing. He solicits her help to improve his dancing skills, acknowledging he might need her to teach him to make his old boots burn. In the end, the man indicates that he is willing to follow her and learn for as long as it takes, as long as he's close to her.
The song is about more than just learning to dance; it is about his admiration for her dancing, which has drawn him in and inspired him to step out of his comfort zone. It is also about his desire to be close to her and to impress her.
