Released on October 14, 1973, the album suffered from a lack of promotion and did not chart. It was his only full-length solo release for more than 15 years and his only solo album with Motown.

"Love Don't Want to Leave" has appeared on several Jackson 5 compilations (including Anthology 76, Anthology 86 and Soulsation!), but the other tracks only appeared on the 33 rpm vinyl LP, which ranks among the more obscure releases in the Jackson family catalogue. The album features background vocals from the Jackson 5 on "Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time)" and the B-side opener "Do I Owe".

"Is It Him or Me" was sampled by Nas for his song "War" on his Street's Disciple album.
