Recorded for RCA Records, it was the fifth solo album after leaving The Monkees. The album was recorded and released in 1972 ; all ten tracks had been composed by Nesmith prior to and during his time as a member of The Monkees. The album features Nesmith on vocals and acoustic guitar and long - time accompanist Red Rhodes on pedal steel guitar. Nesmith has stated that the title of the album is a reaction to the record label repeatedly asking him to write more hit songs and features Nesmith 's own version of his tune `` Different Drum '', a hit for The Stone Poneys featuring Linda Ronstadt in 1967. The version of `` Different Drum '' found here features four verses as opposed to the three in Linda Ronstadt 's version ; the verses in the Ronstadt version are the song 's first, the second, the bridge, and then the fourth. `` Different Drum '' made an unofficial debut on The Monkees episode `` Too Many Girls '' when Mike, posing as a mic - frightened folk singer, butchers its lyrics while playing the guitar. Nesmith and Rhodes recorded an instrumental, `` Cantata & Fugue In C&W, '' for the album but it was left off. Several songs ( notably `` Keep On '' ) reflect a theme common to Nesmith 's country - flavored tracks -- the theme of never letting fear get the best of you. The liner notes to the album are signed `` Papa Nes ''. The album was re-released on the Pacific Arts label and also reissued with Pretty Much Your Standard Ranch Stash by RCA / BMG International in 2000.
