The album was released just after Perfect had left British blues band Chicken Shack, but before she joined Fleetwood Mac.

[6][7] Perfect had previously been a member of the band Chicken Shack, having achieved a top 20 UK single singing a cover of the Etta James song "I'd Rather Go Blind".

Perfect described the band as a "massive weight" and said that concert promoters were "disappointed" in the group, which had also accumulated debt during their tenure.

[1] Most of the songs on the album were performed by the Christine Perfect band, which included Top Topham and Rick Hayward on guitars; Martin Dunsford on bass, and Chris Harding on drums.

Mike Vernon was a great help in many ways – I'm playing music now partly because of what he did to get me started – but even he was pushing me into becoming sort of a black-style English singer.
