The album is most notable for the return of original lead singer Victor Willis, who once again also co-wrote the songs.

Ray Simpson (who had replaced Willis) is featured on two tracks, "Everybody Loves the Funk" and "Radio Freak" and the G.I., Alex Briley sings lead on the ballad "Lonely Lady".

Willis sang lead on all the other songs, which had an edgy funk-oriented feel (and included an early hip hop track, "Play Bach").

Miles Jaye would take over as the "Cop" for the group after the departure of Ray Simpson, who was fired following a disagreement with Morali during the recording of this album.

Although Jeff Olson joined Village People in 1980, this was the first album that he appeared in a cowboy costume.
