Colorado Bar Music, where I've played the last 30 years; come on in and have a beer.

Steven Ferguson All songs written or co-written by Steven Ferguson

Most of the songs on this CD were written in the mid to later 70's in Hawaii on Tom Wagner's four track reel-to-reel recorder, but came to life in 1987 when Steven went into the studio with musician friends he had been playing with for years and then entered 2 of those songs in the Colorado Songwriter's Festival. "Colorado Canyon Song" placed #4 and "Whiskey" placed #8. The next year, 1988, Steven entered "Morning Glory" and placed #3. Three in the top 10 out of 100's of songs entered was not a bad start to test Steven's original material. "Morning Glory" was also played in the late 80's on Boulder's KBCO's radio show, which featured three local songwriters each week. "She Was A Dancer" placed in the semi finals.

Recorded with members of the Mushroom Mountain Band and SlowBurn in the Mid 80's. Three were actually recorded with Hot Rod Steven and Dr. Watson. "MountainBoogie", "When I See" and "Southwind" in the later 90's. The CD version was released in 1999.

"MountainBoogie" and "Southwind" are the more recent songs, written in 1999.

Country Rock with a little Sax

Tombstone Riders is a Denver Based Band playing Original Music. Tombstone Riders won the First round of competition at the Oriental Theater in Denver in 2014, Stephanie Ferguson joined Tombstone Riders for that initial show, then Tombstone Riders added Roger Kline for the second show and went on to win the Grand Prize at the Oriental Theater in 2015, which was 20 hours of recording time.

Steve Schlueter on Drums.  Schlueter and Ferguson started performing in "The Bourbon Cowboy Band" back in the early 80's, then the "Mushroom Mountain Band".  Schlueter went on to back up Bob Simpson who took the place of John Kay in Steppenwolf.  Schlueter is the back bone to the Tombstone Riders.

Jack Chleva has been their main Guitar player in the Studio and when they performed at the Oriental Theater.  As a side note, Jack placed first in the Blues Guitar completion at Guitar Center. 

Robert Rebholz was asked to sit in on Sax in the Studio Sessions, and has become a big part of the Tombstone Riders sound.  Robert has played with many Top Performers in the Denver area. 

Kevin Trainor sat in on Lead Guitar to record "Stoned Again" and "Morning Glory".  Kevin was in the band Duskray Troubadours with John Popper of Blues Traveler. 

Roger Kline was a tremendous player on for guitar, both Lead and Rhythm and Paul Borman also added guitar on some songs...both were part of Tombstone Riders for a short time...Roger Kline and Steve Ferguson wrote the song "Miss Me When I'm Gone" on the "Colorado Canyon Song" CD. Roger was a great find to help add flavor to the songs.

Tombstone Riders also had a brief appearance by Charles Provenza on the "Whiskey Saloon" CD on New Morning, a one time National Mandolin Champion and Six time Telluride Mandolin Contest Winner.
