Songwriter Kenny Young had worked off and on with the Australian singer Susan Traynor on one of his solo albums, Last Stage For Silverworld, where she was listed as 'Amanda'. Young had written Reparata and the Delrons' "Captain of Your Ship", which had been a UK hit, and in order to create a similar vehicle for Young's songwriting, Traynor was renamed exotically, Noosha, and given the helm of his glam rock band, Fox. The band's self-titled debut album was released on GTO Records in 1975 to critical acclaim. The lead single, "Only You Can", was a Top 10 hit in the UK Singles Chart, the follow-up "Imagine Me, Imagine You" later the same year also reached the Top 20 and "He's Got Magic" was a hit in some European countries. The track "Love Ship" was played extensively on Radio Caroline.
