All songs were Phillips originals, dealing mostly with recent events in Phillips' life, including references to his new girlfriend Geneviève Waïte and longtime friend Ann Marshall ("April Anne"). The backing musicians included members of Wrecking Crew. Today the album receives favorable reviews from fans and critics alike. The album was selected as one of ShortList's 55 Coolest Albums Ever. As Phillips was the backing singer in the Mamas and the Papas, with the other three serving as lead singers, the album mix tends to de-emphasize his lead vocals. Denny Doherty stated that, had the Mamas & the Papas performed this album, it would have been one of their finest, because of the strength of Phillips' songs. The single "Mississippi" reached the US Billboard top 40. Phillips and the other members of the Mamas & the Papas were threatened with a lawsuit just as the album was released, discouraging the label from promoting the album. In 2006, the album was reissued by Varèse Sarabande with eight bonus tracks, also mostly Phillips originals.

Bland de medverkande musikerna märks inte minst medlemmar från Elvis Presleys tidigare kompband, till exempel James Burton och medlemmar från . Albumets mixning karakteriseras av att Phillips sång inte är särskilt tydligt framträdande i ljudbilden, vilket kan förklaras av Phillips insåg sina begränsningar som sångare. Vissa kritiker menar att om The Mamas and the Papas (Phillips tidigare band) hade spelat in albumet, med de framträdande sånginsatser som utmärkte det bandet, så hade skivan varit att betrakta som en av deras bästa, främst tack vare Phillips starka låtmaterial. Singeln "Mississippi" nådde en topp-40-placering på Billboardlistan. Albumet återutgavs 2006 med åtta ytterligare spår.
