The previously-unreleased b-side, Rock ‘N’ Roll Is Alive! (And It Lives In Minneapolis), received some press coverage as it was hastily-written and recorded as a response to Lenny Kravitz’s hit song Rock And Roll Is Dead.
The single reached only number 88 on the US Billboard Pop Chart, and number 92 on the Billboard R&B Chart. The single fared much better in the UK, where it reached number 10 on the Gallup Top 40 Singles Chart.
