The song features an influential guitar solo by James Burton, often cited by later guitarists such as Brian May. Piano was by Ray Johnson, who had succeeded Gene Garf as Nelson's regular session pianist in November 1959.[6] other musicians on the record included Joe Osborne on bass and Ritchie Frost on drums.[7] The song appears on Nelson's sixth album Rick Is 21.
