Initially, Gayle's management and record label were the same as that of her oldest sister, <a href="/wiki/Loretta_Lynn" title="Loretta Lynn">Loretta Lynn</a>. Not finding success with the arrangement after several years, and with Lynn's encouragement, Gayle decided to try a different approach. She signed a new record contract and began recording with Nashville producer <a href="/wiki/Allen_Reynolds" title="Allen Reynolds">Allen Reynolds</a>. Gayle's new sound was sometimes referred to as <a href="/wiki/Middle_of_the_road_(music)" title="Middle of the road (music)">middle-of-the-road</a> (MOR) or <a href="/wiki/Country_pop" title="Country pop">country pop</a>, and was part of a bigger musical trend by many country artists of the 1970s to appeal to a wider audience.
