Singles
The title track, "All You Need Is The Music", was released as a single, but it did not chart, as did the followup "Sad, Sad Story" (b/w "Love Keeps Getting Stronger Every Day" in the UK and "Tillie The Twirler" in the US).
Reissue
In 2013, a bootleg CD was issued in select European Union countries, mastered from vinyl. [1]
Trivia
Two years later, Sedaka would rework "Should've Never Let Her Go" into a duet with his daughter Dara under the title "Should've Never Let You Go" for the 1980 album In The Pocket; this duet version would be much more warmly received than the original version heard on this album.
