The track "Mr. Lovedog" was a tribute to the Mother Love Bone singer Andrew Wood, who had died in 1990.

[citation needed] The tracks "Too Tight" and "Charge Me Up" were recorded during these sessions, but did not make it onto the final album.

The record was not released on vinyl in the United States, but was in Europe and a number of Asian countries, including Korea.

[citation needed] Billboard's reviewer praised the album's diversity and strength of musical material.

He singled out "AOR -ready anthem in "Nonstop To Nowhere," an innuendo - ridden teaser in "Big Dictionary," and two strong ballads: "Friends," a touching paean to friendship, and "Mr. Lovedog," a tribute to the late Andrew Wood of Mother Love Bone" and predicted chart entering.
