Tracks: Intro: Goin' Home To The Rock Gideon Tanner No Good Texas Rounder Don't Fall In Love With A Dreamer (with Kim Carnes) The Buckeroos You Were A Good Friend Cal Me Up (The Phone Is In The Cradle) These Chains Somebody Help Me One Place In The Night Sayin' Goodbye Requiem: Goin' Home To Rock About The Record: Gideon reached #1 on the country charts and the top 20 of the pop album charts. It includes the worldwide hit Don't Fall in Love with a Dreamer (a duet with Kim Carnes, who also wrote and produced the album for Rogers). Gideon is a concept album about a Texas cowboy, and all the songs stick to this theme. The album is a look back at his life in retrospect. In the first song Gideon Tanner, it is known that Gideon is dead. This and most of the other songs are sung from the point of view of Gideon. Although the alum's only single release was Don't Fall in Love with a Dreamer, the song Saying Goodbye was issued on the B-side to Rogers' top five hit single Love the World Away.
