The album completed Lightfoot's shift from acoustic folk/country compositions to a more sleek adult contemporary sound, a shift he had begun on Shadows. However, he had never completely abandoned his folk roots, as "Whispers of the North", "Knotty Pine" and "Tattoo" show.
In general, the album was more upbeat than its introspective predecessor with even greater use of electric guitar licks and synthesizers.
