On this album, Buffett has many duets with noted contemporary country music artists, on country songs including "Hey, Good Lookin'" by Hank Williams. This rendition reached No. 8 on the Billboard country singles charts; another single, "Trip Around the Sun" (a duet with Martina McBride) reached No. 20. A third single, a solo version of "Piece of Work", was released in early 2005.[3] The album features the most covers he's recorded for an album – 11 of the 16 songs are covers. It sold 238,600 copies in its first week of release according to Nielsen SoundScan and became his only[update] album to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart.
This is also the name of his 2004 concert tour, which included two shows at Boston's Fenway Park. In November 2005, Mailboat Records released Live at Fenway Park, a live recording of the two shows. Included was a 55-minute DVD of the show.
