The album failed to chart on the Billboard Country Albums chart. The album's first single, "Cowboys Don't Shoot Straight (Like They Used To)", peaked at No. 21 on the Billboard Country Singles chart, and the second single, "Crying in the Rain", peaked at No. 18.
"Easy Come, Easy Go" is a Mama Cass Elliot cover from her 1969 album, Bubblegum, Lemonade, and... Something for Mama. Wynette also recorded a completely different song also called "Easy Come, Easy Go" on her 1976 album, 'Til I Can Make It on My Own, which is a Dobie Gray cover from his 1975 album, New Ray of Sunshine.
