"So find a drink or find a road, I'm 'bout to drop a needle on some ol' no show. You're gonna want an ashtray and a bottle. I'm going deep, I'm going long 'til I run that needle through every last song he ever sung, so pour 'em strong and smoke 'em if you got 'em. Tonight I'm playing Possum."

Travis' website, RandyTravis.com, cites his decision to release a cover record, saying:

“When I think of my musical heroes of yesteryear, or the younger stars of this year, I am reminded that it is true we learn from the ones ahead of us, and teach the ones that follow. They are the reason I chose to make this album.”
