The US album that shares this title was released in June 1973 by Columbia Records but had only three of its 11 tracks in common with those on this album and used a different cover photo and design. That version made its first appearance on Billboard magazine's Top LP's chart in the issue dated July 7, 1973, and remained there for five weeks, peaking at number 174.
One of the tracks on this album that was not on the US version, "What's the Matter Girl", was released as a single in the UK but did not chart.
