UB40 was faced with following up the surprisingly successful covers album Labour Of Love (which had topped the U.K.
chart, and become their U.S.
chart debut) with this album of original material.
Their own songs were good, but no match for what then seemed a one-of-a-kind collection.
"If It Happens Again," which went to Number Nine in Britain, sounded like a song by The English Beat, while the second single, "Riddle Me" (at Number 59), was a deeper reggae groove tune.
It was a good set, but without a classic like "Red, Red Wine," it suffered from a certain anonymity, especially in the U.S.
