Background


Like the rest of Willis' music, the album was recorded with a 1980's Casio keyboard. Each track features a pre-programmed instrumental with Willis talking over it and then singing or yelling the title of the song as the chorus. This album features mainly songs about famous recording artists that Willis liked or saw in concert, including his band. Every song ends with the phrase "rock over London, rock on Chicago," followed by a random sponsor.
