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 the Peniston two number one hits scored in the US Dance chart,[3] Finally" and "Keep On Walkin'", which charted also in the US Hot 100,[4] and her cover version of a Donna Summer's number three hit from 1978, "Last Dance".

"Keep On Walkin'" (number three in the US R&B[5]) was earlier issued as the virtual lead track of the Peniston digital "EP Live", released by One Media Publishing in 2008.[6] In addition, the three track extended play was available also in CDr format since January 14, 2011.
