The album was compiled and remastered by Ray Fulber, the bassist in Bergmann's band.[2] The original tapes had deteriorated so badly that Fulber had to bake them for six hours in a food dehydrator to make them playable again.[2]
Many music journalists had criticized the original album's production, which downplayed Bergmann's guitar in favour of a keyboard-oriented sound that was uncharacteristic of Bergmann's normal musical style.[3] The new album was more widely praised, with Vancouver Sun critic John Mackie calling it "the best album Art Bergmann never made".[4]
