The album was originally released as a double-LP as Grunt CYL2-2545.

After their 1977 tour, Jorma Kaukonen moved on to a solo career and Jack Casady joined the new wave band SVT.

The album had its highest peak at #92 on the Billboard charts.

However the mixing process considerably raised the album's expense.

Producer Felix Pappalardi heavily edited the concert tapes and had Kaukonen re-record his vocals for sides 2 through 4 at Wally Heider Studios.
