Cupid’s Inspiration were a pop-act, who had had a No 4 single with “Yesterday has Gone” and a No 33 with “My World”, both in 1968, but subsequent records had failed, and they were tired of the “one hit wonder” tag. The band had moved to Leamington Spa and were also writing their own rock songs, which they performed as ‘4 Wheel Drive’, a name they soon changed to ‘Chevy’. As ‘Chevy’ they toured supporting bands such as Alvin Lee, Hawkwind and Gillan.

The album received good critical reviews, but did not sell well.

In 1982, Walwyn briefly joined The Mosquitos, with Brian Helicopter, and recorded their only single, “Somethin’ Outta Nothin'”, before joining Leicester band The DTs. Whilst with the DTs Walwyn appeared on three albums, The DTs, Shakin’ and Stirred and Messing with the Blues.
