All songs on the album were written by John Mayol (as well as in collaboration with Steve Thompson). The track "I'm Gonna Fight For You JB" is a tribute to American Blues guitarist George. B. Lenoir who died in 1967 and had a profound influence on John Maiella. The album has only seven songs in 48 minutes.
