The song "That's All It Took" was written by
George Jones, Darrell Edwards, and Charlotte Lynn Grier and originally recorded by Jones as a duet with
Gene Pitney on
Musicor Records. Jones and Pitney had scored a
Top 20 hit in 1965 with "
I've Got Five Dollars and It's Saturday Night" and also recorded two
LPs together. However, "That's All It Took" was not a hit, only making it to number 47 on the
Billboard country singles chart. Although a rather obscure song,
country-rock pioneer
Gram Parsons recorded the song as a duet with
Emmylou Harris on his debut solo album
GP in 1973. A live version by Parsons and his band the Fallen Angels also appears on the 1982 release
Live 1973. == Track listing ==
