4th studio album by Paul Young is less pop-oriented in respect to the predecessor Between Two Fires (1986). The album is generally put together by a much bigger staff of technical personnel, as well as studio musicians. Again, the album contains several covers, and generally that simply raises the quality of the songs. There are a number of songs with a clear jazz feel, which perhaps was in an attempt to make a follow-up to his acclaimed '85 album. The album reached number #4 on the national album charts list but it didn't provide Young with a top-ten single. It comes in various versions with at least two different covers and with different track listing. The album is clearly bettering his '86 album, but it's not up with his two first albums, although, it's by no means a mediocre album.
