"I Make the Dough, You Get the Glory" comes from Asking for Flowers, the third album by Canadian singer-songwriter Kathleen Edwards, out in March 2008. She wrote it alone, plays acoustic guitar on it, and produced it with Jim Scott, who also recorded and mixed the track.
Behind her, Colin Cripps plays electric guitar, Greg Leisz adds pedal steel and Bob Packwood fills in on Hammond organ, while Bob Glaub on bass and Don Heffington on drums and percussion keep it moving. The album followed Failer and Back to Me, her first two records on Zoë, and critics took to it just as warmly; the Boston Globe heard echoes of Back to Me alongside a more grown-up singer and writer. It's also a record packed with nods to figures from the Canadian news.
