It was the first Canadian album to sell more than one million units within Canada. The album reached number one on the Billboard 200 and reached high positions on album charts worldwide.

Six singles were released from the album: "Run to You", "Somebody", "Heaven", "Summer of '69", "One Night Love Affair", and "It's Only Love". All six singles made the top 15 on the US Billboard Hot 100, which until that time had been accomplished previously only by Michael Jackson's Thriller and Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA. The album was ranked No. 49 on Kerrang!s "100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums of All Time" in 1989, and 99th Greatest Rock Album of All Time by Classic Rock and was also named the #12 Greatest Canadian Album of All Time by Bob Mersereau in his book The Top 100 Canadian Albums.

There is very slight wear on the jacket of this vinyl LP. It is still, mostly, protected by the plastic wrap, it is starting to tear away at the bottom right corner. There is a vintage price tag affixed to the plastic wrap of this record album. There is very slight wear on the original “reckless” inside sleeve. I notice no scratches on the vinyl record and it plays through without skips.
