The title track reached No. 31 on the UK singles chart in February 1975.[7] The album's second single, "I Bit off More Than I Could Chew", also reached the charts, peaking at 54 in the UK charts. "Michael" also had limited promotion, being released as a single in some territories, including Australia where the song reached the top 100. The album reached the charts in several territories, reaching the top 50 in Germany, Norway and New Zealand, as well as making an appearance in the US charts, peaking at 146.
The album includes a cover of Little Willie John's "Fever". This was the last LP to include Alistair Mackenzie as keyboard player, with Mike Deacon replacing him thereafter. In 2012, the album was re-issued and digitally remastered by 7T's Records in the UK, along with her other studio releases.[3] This particular re-issue contains bonus tracks and some rare pictures.[1]
This is the album Quatro was promoting during her first UK headline tour, "RAK Rocks Britain", where she headlined a nine-date tour with the Arrows and Cozy Powell's Hammer.
