 1作目がウィンダム・ヒルらしさの『夏』でしたが、第2作目は「これがウィンダム・ヒル?」と耳を疑いたくなってしまったサウンド。かなりトロピカルなアルバム・ジャケットに当初「これがウィンダム・ヒル?」と再び自問してしまったぐらい(笑)
 総合プロデュースを行なったBrian Keanの趣味かなーと思ったりしましたが、この頃のレーベルは、ブライアンがほとんどのプロデュースを行なっていたので、そのサウンド・ポリシーは統一感があります。

 この「夏」のシリーズ第2作は、レコーディングなどが間に合わなかったのか、すでに別のレーベルでレコーディングされていた楽曲も集められているので、今までのウィンダム・ヒルと違った印象を受けたのはそのためだったのかもしれません。オープニングがSamiteでエンディングもSamiteのヴォーカルで締めくくられているあたり、苦心したのかもしれません。かろうじてウィルの楽曲が含まれウィンダム・ヒルと言う名前を守ったのかもしれません… ラニー・ホール、アール・クルーらは、このアルバムのリリースが、自らのウィンダム・ヒルからのソロ・アルバムもリリースされました。1stのショー・ハークネスも同じく。
