Released in 1974 as a double album, this would be the first album where some personnel changes would occur. Bundie Cenas, Omar Mesa and Charles Padro would be replaced with Fudgie Kae, Douglas Rodriguez and Neftali Santiago respectfully. This would also be their last album on Polydor before moving on to United Artists Records the following year.
