About The Record:

In 1981, a new album titled The First Family Rides Again is a good-natured parody of the Ronald Reagan white house and presidency. It was co-produced by Earle Doud and starred "Man of a Thousand Voices" Rich Little as President Reagan. This non-music recording was written by Larry Siegel. In the early 1980s, Siegel was hired as part of a team of writers to pen a sequel of sorts to the hit LP record The First Family. Titled The First Family Rides Again and highlighting mimic Rich Little, the follow-up dealt with the life of Ronald Reagan.
