As recording sessions for the "Ballad of Easy Rider" album continued throughout July and August 1969, public interest in the band mounted as a result of their involvement with the "Easy Rider" film. This prompted McGuinn to announce that the title of the Byrds' forthcoming album would be "Captain America" (the name of Fonda's character in "Easy Rider"). Ultimately, this working title would not be used and the album was instead named after the film's theme song in an attempt to emphasize the connection with "Easy Rider".
