The title is an approximate pronunciation of the French phrase "prends ton manteau", which means "take your coat". The album did not meet sales expectations, and the sisters were dropped from Warner Bros. Records soon afterward.Template:Citation needed In 2016, the album was released on CD by Omnivore Recordings.<ref name="ProntoMontoCD">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
