There's an Innocent Face is the only solo album that Curt Boettcher ever finished during his life. He was assisted throughout the recording by a young multi-instrumentalist named Web Burrell. He was somewhat enamored by the early Emitt Rhodes solo albums, and wanted to make the album in a similar fashion. Of course, it wasn't a completely solo effort, but he did use only a few musicians on the record, in direct contrast to his 60s productions. It stands in direct contrast to most of his work because it relies almost exclusively on outside songwriting.

It has been reissued on CD by Sundazed Records.
