Brother Matt was also in the band and on the recording.
He later appeared on Brandon Fields' The Other Side of the Story in 1985.
A few years later Bissonette would start playing shows with Fields, Garfield and Steve Lukather on guitar and with John Peña on bass as Los Lobotomys.
These shows took place at the Baked Potato, a jazz club and restaurant in Los Angeles, California, playing rock, Latin, and jazz.
