On Plugged In, Edmunds returned to the "one man band" approach of his early solo records;[1] all of the instruments and vocals on the album are performed by him via overdubbing.[2][5]

The album includes a remake of Khachaturian's "Sabre Dance", which was a #5 UK hit in 1968 for Edmunds' band, Love Sculpture.[6]
