"Amarillo Sky" is the fifth and final studio album released by American country music trio McBride & the Ride. It was their first and only album after the reunion of the band's three original members (lead vocalist/bass guitarist Terry McBride, drummer Billy Thomas and guitarist Ray Herndon). The album's first single, a cover of The Who's "Squeeze Box", failed to chart, while the second single, "Anything That Touches You", reached #50 on the "Billboard" country music charts in 2002. Also, the track "Amarillo Sky" was later recorded by Jason Aldean on his self-titled debut album, from which it was released as a single in 2006.
