The title song went to number 66 on the R&B charts. The tracks include "Pleasure Principle, Love Amnesia, Cookie Jar, Misunderstanding, Are You Dreaming? and Mr. Melody Man." This album is one of the more Lush productions from the P-Funk Camp. Debbie Wright left the band only a few months after release of the album and was replaced by Shirley Hayden.
