By the Numbers
Don't Rock the Jukebox is a self-authored country record. Alan Jackson co-wrote eight of its ten tracks, pairing his own pen with Nashville writers Roger Murrah, Keith Stegall, Jim McBride, Don Sampson, and Gary Overton, plus a co-write with Randy Travis on 'From a Distance.' The two songs he did not write are 'Love's Got a Hold on You,' from Carson Chamberlain and Keith Stegall. The composer column uses legal names where they differ from the credited names, so Alan Jackson appears as Alan Eugene Jackson, Keith Stegall as Robert Keith Stegall, and Randy Travis as Randy Bruce Traywick.
Don't Rock the Jukebox is the second studio album by Alan Jackson, released May 14, 1991 on Arista Nashville. Produced by Scott Hendricks and Keith Stegall, it pushed Jackson to the front of the early-1990s neotraditional country movement and outsold his debut. Jackson co-wrote eight of its ten songs, working with Roger Murrah, Keith Stegall, Jim McBride, Don Sampson, Gary Overton, and Randy Travis. The record produced four number-one country singles in the title track, 'Someday,' 'Dallas,' and 'Love's Got a Hold on You,' along with the George Jones tribute 'Midnight in Montgomery' at number three. It reached number two on the Top Country Albums chart, crossed to number seventeen on the Billboard 200, and was certified four-times platinum by the RIAA.
