ALBUM

Still (1963)

Anderson's debut studio album on Decca Records, produced by Owen Bradley, built around the title track, a crossover hit that landed on the Billboard country, pop, and adult contemporary charts simultaneously. It marked his arrival as a recording artist in his own right after several years of success primarily as a songwriter.
