Recorded when Brown was aged between twelve and thirteen, during 1969 and 1970, it includes his debut single, a cover of The Van Dykes' hit "No Man is an Island", a song he had originally worked on with producer Derrick Harriott, and eleven other tracks, all recorded during his time working for Clement "Coxsone" Dodd's Studio One label. The album was first issued circa 1972, by which time Brown had moved on from Studio One to work with other producers. The album features cover versions as well as original compositions by Brown, including "Created by the Father", which has been described as one of his most enduring compositions, and "Make it Easy on Yourself".
No Man Is an Island is a 1962 war film about the exploits of George Ray Tweed, a United States Navy radioman who avoided capture and execution by the Japanese during their years-long World War II occupation of Guam. It stars Jeffrey Hunter as Tweed. The film was shot entirely in the Philippines and all the supporting actors spoke Tagalog rather than Chamorro, much to the amusement of Chamorros who saw it.
