Release
Indiscreet was released in October 1975, nearly a year after Sparks' previous album. It was not as successful as Kimono My House or Propaganda; reaching #18 on the UK Album Chart and #169 in the US. The group's next two albums were even less successful in Europe and the US. They would not garner significant attention until 1979's No. 1 In Heaven.
"Get In The Swing" and "Looks, Looks, Looks" were released as singles. Like the parent album they were only moderately successful reaching #27 and #26 in the UK.
Re-release
Indiscreet was re-issued and remastered by Island in 1994 and 2006. The first issue by the Island Masters subsidiary added the b-side "Profile" and the non-album single "I Wanna Hold Your Hand", and its b-side "England". The '21st Century Edition' did not include "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" or "England"; in their stead it included the rare "The Wedding Of Jacqueline Kennedy to Russell Mael" and a live recording of "Looks, Looks, Looks".
