Background

This is Quatro's first solo single and was released after she moved from the United States to Britain. In the United States, she had already released two singles with the all-female band The Pleasure Seekers.[2]

The song "Brain Confusion (For All the Lonely People)" was written by Quatro and initially recorded while she was part of The Pleasure Seekers.[3] The Pleasure Seekers became Cradle. It was when Mickie Most saw Quatro perform the song with Cradle that he decided to sign her as a solo act. The version of the song on this single is a re-recording with Quatro and session players.[4]

The song "Rolling Stone" was initially written by Phil Dennys (the person who did arrangements for Jade). The lyrics were rewritten by Hot Chocolate front man Errol Brown (and Quatro herself, uncredited) to be more suitable for Quatro.[1]

gollark: And `Promise.resolve` which seems returney.
gollark: I mean, they have `then` which seems bindy.
