Though Jay Ferguson was missing from the lineup, it is generally considered to be their first "reunion" album.

Out of the four albums that Spirit recorded for Mercury in the mid-70s, this one is the least influenced by Randy California's time in Hawaii.

Consequently, it also bears more than a passing resemblance to Clear at times, probably because of John Locke's presence in the group.

The album also includes a notable version of Nature's Way, which is arranged for a chamber orchestra.

Though most of the album was issued on the Mercury Years compilation, much of the material included overdubs which were not part of the original recordings.
