RIVERDOGS – Pre-Production 1989

On October 30, 1989 the RIVERDOGS began pre-production work on what was to be their 1990 debut album ‘Riverdogs’. Now the band are releasing themselves “Pre-Production 1989“. These are the boombox recordings of the band’s live rehearsal with drummer Mike Baird at the Power Plant in Los Angeles.
Also included is the studio recording of the previously unreleased track ‘Caroline’ which was later cut from the album. This collection of recordings bares a glimpse inside the making of ‘Riverdogs’, complete with outtakes and conversation.
The album is only available on physical CD through Amazon.

“Pre-Production 1989” showcases Riverdogs at their creative process, and it’s very interesting how these amazing songs evolved. The sound quality of the recordings is good, and it’s great to finally have the outtake “Caroline”.
I scratch my head wondering why they did’t included “Caroline” into the final tracklist, as this is a wonderful melodic song.
