Having signed to WEA in January 1985, work on a new album started immediately. Sessions with WEA's choice of producers went badly. The band had wanted to use Vic Maile again, bearing in mind the considerable success of 'Good and Gone'. The band's morale was getting low until eventually Howard Gray was brought in to produce. All previous sessions were dumped. However, owing to other commitments Gray had to quit after making only half the album. Eventually WEA gave in and hired Vic Maile who produced the second half of the album. This was the band's first US release.
