Following his exit from BTO, Randy Bachman assembled this group to pursue a melodic rock direction. The inclusion of the track Sweet Lui-Louise brought the band onto the charts, proving the effectiveness of their refined songwriting style.
This 1979 release signals the movement from riff-heavy seventies rock toward the polished production that became common at the end of the decade. The record functions as a document of the era, where blues-rock origins met the professional studio standards of the coming eighties.
