The album is a compilation of traditional Newfoundland songs, many of which were collected together in the Gerald S. Doyle song books. Its title is derived from a line in the folk song "Tickle Cove Pond", which appears as the closing track on the album.
The album was nominated for Roots & Traditional Album of the Year by a group at the 2006 Juno Awards.
The album offered through iTunes came with a digital copy of the booklet. In addition, a live version of "The Old Black Rum" was offered to those who signed up for the pre-order.
The CD version of the album came with a bonus DVD featuring back-stories, commentary and informal performances of many of the album tracks.
