Corea’s previous album (The Sun) was initially only issued in Japan in 1970. It is technically Corea’s fifth album.

Corea, Holland and Altschul made up three fourths of the free jazz ensemble Circle. The setting of this album is largely free and spontaneous, with a few pre-composed pieces included to maintain balance. The only piece not composed by Corea or Holland, or improvised by the trio, is Wayne Shorter's "Nefertiti", now considered a jazz standard. The 1987 CD reissue added two bonus tracks originally issued in the 1970s on Circling In and Circulus; the 1989 CD reissue added the last unissued track from these recordings sessions.
