Unlike the DVD album, its CD equivalent missed additional tracks ("Runaway Love" by Linda Clifford, "Love and Happiness" by Thelma Houston, and "Heart to Break the Heart" by France Joli).

The album included Peniston's two number-one dance hits in the US, "Finally" and "Keep On Walkin'", and her cover version of Donna Summer's 1978 hit song, "Last Dance".

"Keep On Walkin'" was earlier issued as the virtual lead track of the Peniston digital "EP Live", released by One Media Publishing in 2008.[3] In addition, a three track EP was available in CD-r format since January 14, 2011.
