Every major label in Nashville wanted Alison to sign with them after her sucess with "When You Say Nothing at All". They were going to make her a comptempary country music superstar. Instead she stayed with the independent Rounder Recorders and continued to work with Union Station making Bluegrass music. She even allowed Union Station's new guitarist Dan Tyminski to take the lead vocals on multiple songs. Country radio ignored the music on this album leading many to believe Alison had made a mistake staying with Bluegrass. They would be proven wrong.
