Imperial removed the UK LP tracks "Baby Don't Cry" "Mr. Moonlight", "Little Lover", "Whatcha Gonna Do About It" and "Candy Man" and added the singles "Just One Look" and "Here I Go Again" with the b-side "Keep Off That Friend Of Mine" (the first time this song appeared on a LP) to create a unique 12 song album.
