Day by Day with Cilla

The album marked the end of a significant era in Black's recording career as it was her last project to be produced by George Martin, who had worked on all of her recordings since her 1963 debut.

Music arranger on three of the songs, "Thank Heavens I've Got You", "I've Still Got My Heart Joe", and "I Hate Sunday", was Chris Gunning.

Alan Hawkshaw, later composer of the music for Channel 4's Countdown, played piano for these songs.

On 7 September 2009, EMI Records released a special edition of the album exclusively to digital download.

A digital booklet containing original album artwork, detailed track information and rare photographs was also made available from iTunes with purchases of the entire album re-issue.
