The record was released in a metallic blue sleeve displaying a butterfly, an allusion to the album Butterfly Dreams by Brazilian musician Flora Purim and her husband Airto Moreira, whose contributions deeply influenced the sound of Borboletta . In Portuguese, borboleta means “butterfly”. Original bassist David Brown returned to replac Doug Rauch and vocalist/keyboardist Leon Patillo joined.
