The group was one of the few rock artists signed by the Produttori Associati record label, which focused mostly on film soundtracks and jazz.
[1] Among fans of the Italian progressive rock genre Maxophone is today widely regarded as one of the top groups, along with PFM, Le Orme, and Banco del Mutuo Soccorso.
Produttori Associati also released an English language version of the album in Germany and on their Pausa Records division in the USA and Canada.
The group followed up the album with a somewhat more pop-oriented single in 1977, sung in Italian only, titled "Il Fischio del Vapore" (Steam Whistle) b/w "Cono di Gelato" (Ice Cream Cone).
Maxophone disbanded soon after the single release, and despite the album becoming an artistic and critical success[citation needed], they did not re-form for many years.
