From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Amazing Rhythm Aces is an American music group. The band has characterized their music as "American Music" — rock, country, blues, folk, reggae and Latino. They are best known for their 1970s hit "Third Rate Romance".
The Aces were first a local band in Knoxville, Tennessee in the late 1960s early 1970s although they went by another name. The band consisted of founding members Russell Smith, Jeff Davis, and Butch McDade. They left Knoxville for greener pastures in the early seventies.
The Aces came together in Memphis, Tennessee in 1972, first with bassist Jeff Davis and drummer Butch McDade, who had recorded and toured with singer-songwriter Jesse Winchester. Davis and McDade recruited vocalist/guitarist Russell Smith, keyboardist Billy Earhart III, lead guitar, multi-instrumentalist, Barry 'Byrd' Burton, and pianist James Hooker to develop a sound mixing pop, country and blue-eyed soul.
Stacked Deck, their debut album released in 1975, resulted in two crossover (rock and country) hits, "Third Rate Romance" and "Amazing Grace (Used to Be Her Favorite Song)," the group's lone Top 10 country single. In 1976 "The End Is Not in Sight (The Cowboy Tune)," from the album Too Stuffed to Jump, won a Grammy for Country Vocal Performance by a Group.
Burton left the group after the release of 1977's Toucan Do It Too, and was replaced by Duncan Cameron.
In 1978, the Aces released Burning the Ballroom Down, followed the next year by a self-titled effort featuring songs with Joan Baez, Tracy Nelson and the Muscle Shoals Horns. Both albums received critical approval, but sold poorly. They released another album, How the Hell Do You Spell Rhythum, before disbanding.

If you need a shoulder for a while
It's alright
You don't even have to try to smile
I know he just hurt you
I know he just broke your heart
I'm not tryin' to take his place
I'm just here to do my part
[Chorus]
You don't need nobody
Holdin' you right now
You're too tender hearted
I'm just gonna have to hold out somehow
But don't you worry baby
I won't give up on you
I'm gonna be here waitin'
When your love comes out of the blue
When your love comes out of the blue
It's alright
Girl, I know just how you feel
It's alright
I know it's gonna take a little time to heal
I don't care how long it takes
Or what I have to do
I ain't the kind that runs away
I ain't to see you through
[Chorus: x2]
The Amazing Rhythm Aces's song "Out of the Blue" is an emotional ballad that speaks to the heart of those who have experienced a recent breakup or heartache. The singer offers a shoulder to cry on and reassurance that they don't need anyone else to comfort them. The lyrics suggest that the singer understands the pain and is willing to support and wait for their love to return.
The first verse implies that the singer knows the girl is hurting and acknowledges that her recent heartbreak was caused by someone else. The tone of the song is gentle and loving, as the singer offers to be there for the girl, not as a replacement for the person who hurt her but as a friend. The chorus emphasizes the singer's willingness to wait for the girl to heal and for love to find its way back into her life.
In the second verse, the singer acknowledges that healing takes time, and he is prepared to wait as long as necessary to be there for her. The song reflects the idea that true love takes patience and understanding, and the singer is willing to offer both. The song ends on a hopeful note, suggesting that love can come unexpectedly, and the singer will be waiting when it does.
