Buck Owens, Young's guitarist, wanted to sing on the album. Young declined the request, because he feared losing Owens to a solo career, but eventually helped to sign him after listening to a demo.[2]

Critical reception

Billboard wrote that the album included "pretty standards ... done up with poppish, slightly rocking backings."[4]

gollark: `-g3` doesn't add more useful output.
gollark: MPU6050.
gollark: The basic raw-value-reading bit, which I could easily implement myself in python, works fine, but some DMP code I had to copy from the arduino library (which is probably why it breaks horribly?) causes æææ.
gollark: ```MPU6050 3-axis acceleromter example programASAN:DEADLYSIGNAL===================================================================2032==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x00000013 (pc 0x0014255c bp 0x7ea10018 sp 0x7ea10000 T0) #0 0x14255b (/home/pi/mputest/a.out+0x14255b) #1 0xcdec3 (/home/pi/mputest/a.out+0xcdec3) #2 0x76c256bf (/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6+0x2c6bf)AddressSanitizer can not provide additional info.SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: SEGV (/home/pi/mputest/a.out+0x14255b) ==2032==ABORTING```This is very unhelpful.
gollark: Now, *technically* I could implement all the filtering and sensor fusion algorithms and calibration myself in python, however no.
