AllMusic | [4] |
"Wait For You" had a music video that was filmed at "Disney-MGM Studios' New York backlot".[5]
William Ruhlmann of AllMusic stated the record was "palatable, but without the famous name it would be hard to distinguish from the army of other Zep imitators".[4]
All tracks are written by Jason Bonham, John Smithson, Ian Hatton & Daniel MacMaster, except where indicated

Young Bonham is almost exclusively associated with the type of old-fashioned hard rock pioneered by his dad's band. Indeed, Jason's former group, Bonham, scored a Top 40 album in 1990 ("The Disregard of Timekeeping") largely by following the mighty Zep's thunderous sonic recipe.
