The album debuted on the Billboard Top 200 Chart on November 8, 1975, reaching No. 5 in early 1976. The album was certified triple platinum. The Piano Player sculpture on the album's front cover was created by Italian artist Dino Bencini. Both front and back cover art were later parodied by Ray Stevens on the cover of his 1979 album The Feeling's Not Right Again, which contains the song ?I Need Your Help, Barry Manilow.? One of the album's commercially overlooked songs was She's a Star. Enoch Anderson's lyrics paint the picture of a female singer's struggles with fame and stage fright from a band member's perspective, which some listeners could reasonably presume to describe Bette Midler's feelings about Manilow when he became a successful solo act in his own right. The song got a modern uptempo makeover to fit the male lead (as He's a Star) for Manilow's 2011 rock opera 15 Minutes.
