In 1989, Fricke's final album with Columbia Records was released titled Labor of Love. With limited commercial attention to her music, the label dropped her in 1990 and Fricke signed with the smaller Intersound Records in 1991. Her first album project with the label would be an eponymous disc in 1991. It was recorded at the House of David, a studio located in Nashville, Tennessee. The sessions for the album were produced by Gilles Godard and Randy Jackson (Fricke's husband at the time). A total of 11 tracks comprised the album. Three of the album's songs were composed by Gilles Godard: "Greater Than Love", "I Want to Grow Old with You" and "I Know a Good Love (When I Lose One)".
