Because the album was released a year after the departure of creator John Kricfalusi, the Ren Höek vocals were re-recorded by Billy West, and Bob Camp (who replaced Kricfalusi as showrunner) took his role of Stinky Wizzleteats in the album version of "Happy Happy Joy Joy".

The album's cover is a parody of the cover for The Beatles album Abbey Road, showing Mr. Horse (in place of John Lennon), Muddy Mudskipper (in place of Ringo Starr), Stimpy (in place of Paul McCartney), and Ren (in place of George Harrison) walking across the street.[5]
