The album's first single "Don't Mean Nothing" charted at number one on Billboard's Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in 1987.
Five singles were released from the album, each of them doing well on the charts. Marx's future wife, Cynthia Rhodes, G.W. Bailey, and Fee Waybill appeared in the video for the lead single "Don't Mean Nothing". The album went to number eight on the Billboard charts and spent 86 weeks on that chart.
