Feelin' All Right was the last studio album by the New Riders that featured both John "Marmaduke" Dawson and David Nelson as full-time band members (although Nelson made a guest appearance on 1992's Midnight Moonlight). The two had co-founded the band in 1969 with Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. Also included in the lineup was longtime member Buddy Cage on pedal steel guitar, along with guitarist Allen Kemp and drummer Patrick Shanahan. Kemp wrote or co-wrote seven of the ten songs on the album, his first as a member of NRPS.[5][6]
