Not really, though. Mick worked very hard to get the album promoted. At one point, the master tapes went missing and were in a pile of tapes to be erased. The label though it was only marginally better than previous albums, so Mick went label shopping and got an offer from Arista. They even had to go outside the label channels to get an alternate mix of “Over My Head” for AM radio.
