The title alludes to the Holly song "Listen to Me", which was included in the album. Some tracks were previously released, such as Linda Ronstadt's 1970s version of That'll Be the Day, which was also produced by Asher.

A similar 75th birthday tribute album, Rave On Buddy Holly, had been issued just two months previously. It contained a similar range of songs, but by a different group of artists—although Zooey Deschanel appears on both albums (as a solo artist on Listen to Me and as a member of She & Him on Rave On).
