Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Can I Have My Money Back? is the first solo album by Gerry Rafferty. The distinctive cover design was by John Patrick Byrne and was the start of a long working relationship between Rafferty and the playwright. The LP was well received, but performed poorly in charts and sales, in part because Rafferty had just left a well known band, The Humblebums. The album also saw Joe Egan come on board, and the pair formed Stealers Wheel shortly afterwards.

To capitalize on Rafferty's success with Stealers Wheel, the album received its first US release in 1973 on Blue Thumb Records. Following his subsequent solo success with "Baker Street", the label (then a subsidiary of ABC) reissued the album in 1978.[2]
The album was re-issued in the UK in 2000 on CD (subtitled "The Best of Gerry Rafferty") with a different cover design (Castle Music, Ltd; Cat. No. ESMCD-879). It featured an additional twelve Humblebums tracks. This was later released in the US in 2002 on CD, and in partnership with Silverline Records, DVD-Audio with a 5.1-channel 96 kHz/24bit MLP surround mix by Rich Fowler.
