Tony Stratton-Smith wrote in the original liner notes that "this record gives ribs and muscle to acoustic music."
It would be the only album that included Charlie Harcourt (who would later go on to join Cat Mother & the All Night Newsboys and Lindisfarne), Tommy Slone, and Mario Enrique Covarrubias Tapia who would leave shortly after the album was released.
