The album features fourteen new tracks and four previously released songs (bonus tracks) from his first two studio albums.

The lead-off single from the album, "All I Ever Needed" featuring Jessica Andrews appeared on Billboard's "Hot Country Songs" chart, with its best position being number 45.[3] All I Ever Needed also features a music video which appeared on Billboard's "Hot Videoclip Tracks" chart in 2008.[4]
