Peggy Santiglia was by this time the lead singer of the Angels but included on the album is the group's first hit "Till" which was originally recorded in 1961 with the group's previous lead singer, Linda Jansen. It is unspecified if the track was re-recorded with Santiglia on lead or not. There is also a cover version of The Chiffons' "He's So Fine" as The Chiffons had covered "My Boyfriend's Back," and a reading of "Someday My Prince Will Come" from the 1937 film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The album sold fairly well and charted at number 33 on the US Billboard 200 Albums chart, the group's most successful effort.
