After almost thirty years in the music business, Frankie Miller suffered a brain haemorrhage in 1994 which resulted in him being unable to speak or sing.

Mackay contacted Miller's wife, who sent him "two sacks full of demos".

On 12 August 2016, a trailer for the album was published on Miller's Facebook page.

"I found more and more artists loved Frankie Miller, and they were just ready to drop everything and come and sing on a track.

"[1] On 9 August 2016, "It Gets Me Blue" with Paul Carrack was released as the lead single.
