Money described the album as more upbeat and positive than his previous album No Control, saying, "We're ready to rock.... We're all in a party mood, and the album reflects that."[2]
The album peaked at #67 on the
synth-bands of the time.[3]
In a 1986 interview promoting his following album, Can't Hold Back, Money stated that Where's the Party? "sold about 280,000 units. For the money I spent on it, it wasn't enough."[4]
