The album introduced some rock, soul and R&B flavors in a calculated move by Cassidy to expand beyond his teen idol image.

[2] AllMusic's Al Campbell wrote that the blue-eyed soul album was officially produced by Farrell, but the song selections and styles showed that Cassidy was also making decisions.

[1] Cassidy's cover of the Young Rascals song "How Can I Be Sure" was included in the album, having peaked at number 3 on the US Adult Contemporary chart in June 1972 and #25 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

[4] The album's title track gained US airplay in early September 1972, rising to number 38 in mid-October.

The song "Rock Me Baby" was recorded around the same time by UK group Brotherhood of Man, but they shelved their release when Cassidy had a hit with it.
