It includes "[[Wake Up My Love]]", issued as a single, and "[[Dream Away (George Harrison song)|Dream Away]]", which was the theme song for the 1981 [[HandMade Films]] production ''[[Time Bandits]]''. Harrison produced the album with [[Ray Cooper]] and former [[The Beatles|Beatles]] engineer [[Phil McDonald]]. With Harrison uninterested in the contemporary music scene and unwilling to promote the release, ''Gone Troppo'' failed to chart in the United Kingdom, and it was his only post-Beatles studio album not to chart inside the top 20 in the United States.<ref>Simon Leng, ''While My Guitar Gently Weeps: The Music of George Harrison'', Hal Leonard (Milwaukee, WI, 2006; {{ISBN|1-4234-0609-5}}), p. 321fn.</ref> For the next five years, he largely took an extended hiatus from his music career, with only the occasional soundtrack recording surfacing.
