Following the success of Richard's 1979 single "We Don't Talk Anymore", which was written and arranged by Alan Tarney, the record company was keen to use his services again.

This was also a top 20 hit in the UK and US - making this Richard's most successful period in the American market.

The album received positive reviews and kept Richard high in the charts during this, his revival period.

The track "Give a Little Bit More", which was co-written by Andy Hill, who was about to become famous as the writer and producer for Bucks Fizz, was released in some countries as a single, as was "In the Night" (not the same as the Barbara Dickson song which was released around that time and also produced by Tarney).

[10] This track was unreleased as a single in the UK, where it was covered by Johnny Logan in September 1980, but his version failed to chart.
