“Night Nurse” foi lançada como single em 1982, logo após Gregory Isaacs assinar com a Island Records.
A faixa deu nome ao álbum de 1982, que alcançou o top‑40 na UK Albums Chart, mostrando o sucesso comercial da canção.
Nos clubes da época, “Night Nurse” era extremamente popular e recebeu forte divulgação nas rádios britânicas.

Em 1997, Sly & Robbie gravaram uma versão de “Night Nurse” com a participação de Simply Red, que se tornou um hit nas paradas britânicas.
