Produced by Brian Eno, the album was recorded over a period of four months between October 1977 and February 1978, primarily in Cologne, Germany,
The album received somewhat mixed reviews from critics and peaked at number 12 on the UK Albums Chart and number 78 on the U.S. Billboard chart. Recent reviews of the album have been more uniformly positive, and the album has charted on several retrospective "best of" lists from publications including Rolling Stone, Pitchfork Media and Spin.
