Tony Stratton-Smith wrote in the original liner notes that "this record gives ribs and muscle to acoustic music."
It would be the only album that included Charlie Harcourt (who would later go on to join Cat Mother & the All Night Newsboys and Lindisfarne), Tommy Slone, and Mario Enrique Covarrubias Tapia who would leave shortly after the album was released.

gollark: You could call it "5.15". Probably shouldn't. But could.
gollark: Add and subtract are some kind of compose, I forgot which way round, and concat is... some kind of arrowy operator? It returns a new function which runs two functions on the same input and returns two outputs.
gollark: In potatOS you can add, subtract, and concatenate functions.
gollark: You could do CC's current "5.1ish", and a "5.4" option, and... rewrite all the BIOS/CraftOS code to work in both, I guess? I don't know how practical that is.
gollark: It'd literally just be `debug.setfenv`, I think.
