"Where Corn Don't Grow" was previously recorded by Waylon Jennings on his 1990 album The Eagle, and was his #67-peaking single that year. "Double Trouble" was a duet with Tritt's long-time friend and recording partner Marty Stuart.

"The Twentieth Century is Almost Over" was re-recorded five years later by Cash and Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson, collectively known as The Highwaymen, on their first album entitled Highwayman, though it was, in essence, a duet with Nelson.
