Parton would later re-recorded the song under this abbreviated title with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris as part of their 1987 album Trio.

The song's title was further abbreviated to "Pain of Lovin' You" when it was recorded by The Grascals (featuring Parton) in 2011 for their album Country Classics with a Bluegrass Spin.

The album's liner notes were written by Don Howser, longtime announcer on The Porter Wagoner Show.

"[3] Cashbox published a review in the issue dated February 13, which said, "Having already won just about every award possible for a vocal duo, Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton, certainly "Two of a Kind", are back on the right track again with their first LP release of the new year.

Porter and Dolly are capable of delivering soft, moody ballads, or up-tempo rockers with the utmost of sincerity and smoothness.
