Following this release, the band set off on a Vertigo-sponsored tour of the UK, supporting Graham Bond and Roy Harper, which failed to earn them mainstream public recognition.

The remnants of Catapilla reformed the group with the additions of Bryan Hanson (drums), Ralph Rolinson (keyboards) and Carl Wassard (bass), and returned to the studio to record their second album, Changes.

In the 1970s, Hugh Eaglestone set up a secondhand record shop, called Catapilla, in Exeter.
