It was released in 1986, and featured the minor hit, "Weak in the Presence of Beauty".[1] Unlike the previous album which featured Carroll Thompson on vocals, this album instead featured vocals from Desi Campbell, whilst both original member Michael Ward and new member Robert E. Clarke performed and wrote the music. "Friday Night" was also released as a single but was a commercial failure.[1] The band split shortly after the album although in 1990, both Campbell and Shaun Ward would form the band Everyday People. Shaun Ward spoke of the album in 1990, during an interview with his band Everyday People. He stated "The first Floy Joy album was an anthology of R&B, jazz... all the things we’d grown up listening to and absorbed. Though we liked it, we came to realize that maybe it was a bit too personal. So that’s why the second album is more direct and commercial. Unfortunately when we did that no one wanted to know."[2] Track listingAll tracks written by Michael Ward and Robert E. Clarke except where noted.
