Recorded in 1987 and released in 1988, this album was originally distributed by CBS and reached the top 10 of several national charts including #7 in Billboard’s Adult Contemporary Chart. With the release of this album Do’a added the letter "h" to its name to make it easier to pronounce and so as to not disappoint the fans of D.O.A., the popular punk-rock band touring the U.S. at the same time.

Featuring the composing and arranging of Randy Armstrong and Ken LaRoche, this quintet album showcases a suite in three movements by Randy Armstrong composed for the 1986 United Nations International Year of Peace and the song "Wayo" composed by Ken LaRoche which received the most radio airplay of any Do'a World Music Ensemble song and was featured on Entertainment Tonight. This album was the last and 5th album recorded by Do'a World Music Ensemble featuring musicians Marty Quinn, Volker Nahrmann and Charlie Jennision and includes Bonus Tracks of "Wayo" and "World Dance"— the Radio Airplay Singles.
