The album is dedicated to Paul Hewson, who appeared as part of the group on the recording, but who had died in early 1985. The album was also the last new Dragon recording to feature guitarist Robert Taylor, bookending Taylor's ten-year membership of the group. It also spelt the end of Terry Chambers' involvement with Dragon.
