It includes “Someday Soon”, which was subsequently recorded by a numerous artists and in 2010 was honored as one of the “Top 100 Western Songs” of all time.

For the cover, art director Jules Halfant used a photograph by Barry Feinstein and two styles from Hal Fiedler’s eponymous Gothic, with an ampersand that’s either custom or from an unidentified didone. The yellow text at the bottom is in Microgramma, the credits in Trade Gothic Extended.
