After the disbandment of Transvision Vamp in the early 1990s, Wendy James ventured into a short lived solo career, culminating in the release of her debut album Now Ain't the Time for Your Tears in 1993. The album met with limited commercial success and James dropped out of the music scene until re-establishing herself as an independent artist with new band Racine. The band, fronted and nurtured by James, also consisted of Singh Birdsong on guitar and Ray Sullivan on drums.[1]

Number One was released in late September, 2004 and provided Wendy James with her first music release in over a decade. A single, "Grease Monkey" was released soon after.
