The album does not feature frontman Lawrence in any musical capacity. He provided only the track titles (except for "Run Chico Run", which is credited to Wenzel Brown[4]). The music, all instrumental and in a jazz style, was written and performed by keyboardist Martin Duffy and drummer/percussionist Gary Ainge.
Reviewing the album for Melody Maker, Simon Turner said it "bears no obvious relationship to anything else they've done."[1]
