Three other singles charted from the album in 1986: "Honky Tonker" and "All Because of You", both written by Steve Forbert, and Stuart's own "Do You Really Want My Lovin'". The album accounted for Stuart's first chart entry on Billboard Hot Country Songs charts with his first single release, " Arlene". Stuart released his self-titled debut album on Columbia in 1985. Later that year, Stuart left Cash's band and landed a recording contract with Columbia Records. At the end of the session, Perkins presented Stuart with his guitar. In 1985, Stuart accompanied Johnny Cash to Memphis and played on the Class of '55 album that also featured Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, and Jerry Lee Lewis. The album was composed of a jam session that included a number of country and bluegrass performers such as Cash, Watson, and Earl Scruggs. In 1982, he released a second album called Busy Bee Cafe on Sugar Hill Records.
After this, Stuart performed with Vassar Clements and Doc Watson before joining Johnny Cash's band in 1980. He continued to tour in this capacity until Flatt retired in 1978, and recorded an independent album called With a Little Help from My Friends that same year. While a member of this band, Stuart met mandolinist Roland White, a member of Lester Flatt's backing band White invited Stuart to perform with Flatt at a concert in Delaware in 1972, which led to him becoming a regular member of that band. Stuart learned to play guitar and mandolin as a child and, by age 12, he had joined a gospel band called The Sullivans. John Marty Stuart was born in Philadelphia, Mississippi, on September 30, 1958.
