The album was produced and engineered by Andrew Cronshaw at Ideal Sound Recorders, London.
Notable for its spare, almost minimalist arrangements, the album includes a mixture of traditional and non-traditional songs, in particular two from Tabor favourite Bill Caddick.
The accompanying book to the Topic Records 70 year anniversary boxed set Three Score and Ten lists this album as one of its classic albums.[2]:69
