"I brought some decent songs and tried not to overplay. It's a never-ending process," said Hunter of the record.[1] It marks the culmination of Hunter's more eclectic fusion recordings; future records would follow a more straightforward blues/R&B pattern. All songs were recorded live to 16-inch analog tape before being mixed digitally.
