Young's seventh album with [[Crazy Horse (band)|Crazy Horse]], it was co-produced by long-time collaborator [[David Briggs (producer)|David Briggs]] who died the following year. The title track was written in response to [[Suicide of Kurt Cobain|Kurt Cobain's suicide]]. Musician and author Ken Viola described the album as one of Young's "top five records.
