It was recorded live at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles in December 1976 during the international tour of Ross' one-woman show, for which she was awarded a special Tony Award after the show's run at Broadway's Palace Theater, followed by an Emmy-nominated TV special of the same name.

It marked the first time in history a solo female headlined a 90-minute TV special.

The album includes a number of songs unique to this collection that Ross never recorded as studio tracks.

These include a number of songs from Harry Nilsson's 1970 album and animated feature The Point!, selections from the Broadway hit musical A Chorus Line and covers of Dionne Warwick's "Here I Am' and longtime Motown collaborator Johnny Bristol's "I Wouldn't Change A Thing".
