The original album includes six songs that reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including the year's No. 1 song, "Sugar, Sugar" by The Archies. The remaining four tracks each reached the Hot 100's Top 5. A 1993 re-issue replaced three tracks, bringing the number of chart toppers down from six to five. On the re-issue, a cover of the title track from the musical "Hair" was replaced with another cover from that musical: "Good Morning Starshine."

The album was certified Gold by the RIAA on July 16, 1996.[2]
