Infinite Rider on the Big Dogma (or simply, Infinite Rider) is Michael Nesmith's ninth post-Monkees studio album and the third studio album from his own company, Pacific Arts Records & Tapes. To continue developing Pacific Arts' multimedia projects, Nesmith originally developed the album as a "video album" (however, to date, Infinite Rider has only been released as a music album). It peaked at No. 151 on the Billboard Pop albums charts. The album was well received with both "Crusin" and "Factions" garnering significant airplay during July and August 1979 on Album Oriented Rock radio stations.

Contents

All the tracks on Infinite Rider have only one word in their title. Yet, on the LP, Nesmith listed each song with a parenthetical subtitle for each track.

Although the album was never released on video, Nesmith has released the album on compact disc. Several songs from the album have been produced as music videos, however, which were featured in Nesmith's Elephant Parts "video album".

Promotional materials

To promote the release of Infinite Rider, Pacific Arts released a promotional album entitled "The Michael Nesmith Radio Special". The promotional album intertwines an interview with Nesmith and the anticipated slate of songs for his then-forthcoming album.
