The song "Live in Peace" was later re-recorded by Rodgers with his band The Firm for their second album Mean Business. "Superstar Woman" was originally recorded by Bad Company for their debut self-titled album, but it was ultimately left off the final track listing; Rodgers re-recorded it for this album. (The original Bad Company version was eventually released on The 'Original' Bad Co. Anthology in 1999.)[4] The album peaked at #135 on the Billboard's 200 chart.[5]
