From the back cover: A few months ago a great sound was relayed to us by our brethren across the Northern Border. It seems that all the groovy people from one end of the land of the Maple Leaf to the other were digging the sound of a new song by a new group; "Which Way You Goin' Billy?" by The Poppy Family featuring Susan Jacks.

As the weeks passed, the rumble out of Canada became a roar of acclaim and "Which Way Are You Goin' Billy?" hit the number one spot on all the radio station charts across the country culminating in its being chosen Song of the Year by RPM, the Canadian music industry trade paper, and being certified as the biggest Canadian hit ever.

Continuing its long tradition as a Good Neighbor, Canada is sharing its discovery and London Records is delighted to bring you this album by The Poppy Family featuring Susan Jacks containing "Which Way You Goin' Billy? and eleven other great songs. The versatility of the group, from Terry Jacks meaningful writing, to Susan's beautiful and emotional-packed voice is incredible and has got to be the start of a great career.

From Billboard - June 6, 1970: The Canadian group, with the smash hit – the title tune – has given us its first album. And what a debut it is. Listening to this album one can easily understand and appreciate the group's meteoric rise to popularity. The outfit is smooth, cool, professional and as together as a group can get. With Susan Jacks on vocal it merges pop and folk with soft rock overtones and imaginative arrangements.
