BW Goes C&W is the ninth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bobby Womack. The album was released in April 1976, by United Artists Records. The album was released amid growing tensions between Womack and United Artists Records, who strongly opposed Womack releasing a country album at a time when many soul artists were moving towards glossier R&B and disco.[2] United Artists relented and allowed the album's release after Womack agreed not to use the original title Step Aside, Charley Pride, Give Another Nigger a Try. Poor sales and negative critical reception resulted in Womack leaving United Artists for Columbia Records.[3]
