Mike Nesmith: "It was a style that came naturally to me. I had been playing the club circuit at that time, and music in more of a folk vein was at its peak of popularity. The fusion of rock and folk wasn't a conscious direction, it just happened as such. John and Bill on that record were John London and Bill Sleeper. John later played with me as a member of the First National Band. Anyway, we were discovered playing in a club by Frankie Laine's girlfriend, who really liked the way we sounded. She recommended us to Frankie, who was starting his own label at the time. Consequently, our record was released on his Omnibus label."
