For these recording Jackson re-united with the musicians from his first successes: Graham Maby, Gary Sanford and Dave Houghton. As he made television appearances to promote the album, Jackson insisted that the quartet's reunion had been a one-off.[3]
His recording of "Steppin' Out" was used in a television advertisement for Lincoln-Mercury automobiles.[3]
