Ashton and Lord wanted to create the feel of a big band in the studio, so had up to 15 musicians in at any one time, and usually worked with two drummers, guitars, brass, keyboards and backing vocals. The album appears to have been largely finished by 1973 but delayed until 1974 to avoid confusing the market during the line-up changes in Deep Purple. It seems likely that more work was done during this time but tape logs no longer survive.
