The Hooters gathered in October 2006 at keyboard player
Rob Hyman 's Elmstreet Studios, in suburbanPhiladelphia ,Pennsylvania , for the recording of basic tracks, followed by additional recording at guitaristEric Bazilian 's Red Door Recording studio.Several of the songs on the album had been previewed during The Hooters' live shows in 2005 and 2006, with one of the tracks, "Until You Dare," originally recorded on
Eric Bazilian 's 2000 solo album "The Optimist."There is a
cover version ofDon Henley 's 1984 song "The Boys of Summer" that came about as a result of Rob Hyman and Eric Bazilian being asked to participate in a show for theVH1 Save the Music Foundation inNew York City , where bands from the 1980s were asked to play their own songs while also choosing a song that they wished that they had written from the 1980s. After performing the song as part of their live shows the previous two years, they decided to record a studio version for inclusion on the album.The final mixes were completed in May 2007.
