The songs are composed by Richard Hudson, John Ford and Terry Cassidy.The song "Love in Stereo" has at times been embraced as something of a theme song by the polyamory movement. However, it may be debated whether the meaning actually refers to one man in love with two women or one man in love with one woman whose wants and habits change a lot from moment to moment.
A Capitol reissue of the original EMI release further exposed the album.
