The album cover features the return of Daryl Dragon's and Toni Tennille's bulldogs, who were featured on their first album, Love Will Keep Us Together.

The chart performance of the album's three singles hinted at a decline in the duo's popularity. "Can't Stop Dancin'" was a hit at No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 (it failed to chart in the U.K.), but "Come In from the Rain" (originally recorded by Melissa Manchester on her album Better Days & Happy Endings) became the duo's first single in nearly two years to miss the Top 40, peaking at No. 61, and Tennille's self-written "Circles" failed to even "Bubble Under" the Hot 100, though the latter two were both top 10 Easy Listening hits.

Over exposure appeared to be a factor. Their previous five singles all went top 5 in the U.S. in 1975-1976. They hosted their own television variety series on ABC in 1976–77. They had only two more hits with "You Never Done it Like That" hitting in the U.S. Top 10 in 1978 and their second No. 1 in 1980 ("Do That to Me One More Time").
