It was released in 1979 and contained four singles. BackgroundThe album was released in May 1979 on Pye Records. It featured four singles, "Middle of the Night", "Goodbye Goodbye", "Papa Louis" and "Taxi" but failed to chart.[1] "Middle of the Night" had already appeared on the group's Greatest Hits compilation released some months earlier and was the only single to chart.[2] At the time the group had a regular spot on the Rolf Harris show, Rolf on Saturday, OK?, where they sang several songs from the album (namely "Papa Louis", "Middle of the Night", "Taxi", "Sleeping Beauty" and "Olé Olé").[3] The style of the album was in the group's familiar pop mould, but with a shift towards more lightweight themes. The single "Goodbye Goodbye" was a more sombre affair and its failure in the charts led to the next two singles being aimed more at the children's market. "Papa Louis" was about a circus, while "Taxi" was a tale of a man and woman meeting in a taxi. The album, like the group's others was produced by manager Tony Hiller, it continued his trend for short songs, with many of the tracks being less than three minutes, a largely outdated concept at the time given the rise of disco music which was at its peak at the time, which favoured longer-length songs. According to member Sandra Stevens, the group had undertaken many photo shoots for the album cover, but ultimately, a painting of the group (in a hot air balloon) was used. The artwork was by Dawson Thomas. Track listingAll tracks composed by Hiller, Sheriden and Lee Side One
