The 15 songs are covers of Oklahoma songwriters such as J.J. Cale (“If You’re Ever in Oklahoma”), Leon Russell (“Home Sweet Oklahoma”), Kevin Welch, and members of the Red Dirt scene (Bob Childers, Tom Skinner, Randy Crouch, Scott Evans), all of whom influenced Canada as a budding musician in Stillwater, Oklahoma.  (Littleton penned “Any Other Way” with Brad James while with Medicine Show.)  Canada lived for a while at Childers’ funky Stillwater compound, nicknamed “The Farm,”  where in the late 1980’s and 1990’s the Red Dirt Rangers, Jason Boland, Stoney LaRue, Mike McClure and others experimented with the musical genre blending Western swing, blues, honky tonk, and rock, which now characterizes the Austin alt-country scene.

"Medicine Show’s Scott Evans, called a Red Dirt legend by the book, said this: “When Red Dirt first came up, me and Mike Shannon used to joke, just sort of philosophically, critically, what is it?

“And Mike first observed to me: If you think of the other sounds, like Motown or Muscle Shoals, the reason they have the same sounds is because they have the same musicians. There was a continuity to it, at the fundamental level — it’s a rhythm section, it’s a utility player. Then you bring in different artists for the harmonies and solos. That’s a real interesting mix because the root is always the same.

“There’s nothing like that in Red Dirt because you have a whole bunch of different people. You had the Red Dirt Rangers doing psychedelic Tejano music at that time. But it had different themes all over. It had a Western theme, that psychedelic theme, a rock theme, Tex-Mex. You name it, it’s there. And we were, at that time, a Grateful Dead cover band that could also do Hank Williams and ZZ Top.”"

Soul Agent

"Soul Agent" written by Scott Evans is an, if you will, extremely “soulful” reflection of the lives that people sometimes lead, and leaves you thinking that Plato, with his clear and piercing voice has been singing lead for years. It’s a brilliant song.
