Home in the Heart of the Beat is the second and final album by the American band Beat Rodeo, released in 1986.[1][2] The band supported it with a North American tour that included shows opening for the Call.[3][4]
The album was produced by Scott Litt.[5] Its songs were written by frontman Steve Almaas, who thought that the band's touring in support of their debut helped get them on the same musical wavelength for the recording sessions.[6][7] Beat Rodeo were open to exploring new sounds and styles on Home in the Heart of the Beat, noting that the Beatles and David Bowie often recorded albums that sounded differently from the ones that had come before.[8] Syd Straw sang on the album; Lenny Pickett contributed on saxophone.[9] The band used synthesized strings on "Everything I'm Not".[10]
