Davies was instrumental in organising and producing the album (and provided lead vocals on the track "You Make Me Feel Right at Home"), which later went multi-platinum.

The nucleus of Rob Grange, Derek St. Holmes and Cliff Davies for songwriting, as well as arranging, was forever broken.

In 1978, three years later and with four platinum albums titled Ted Nugent, Free-for-All, Cat Scratch Fever and Double Live Gonzo!, Grange and St. Holmes moved on to form St. Paradise, because Nugent did not want a "band concept".

He was also instrumental in founding the Rock and Roll Remembers Foundation with writer Michael Robert Krikorian.

Davies was found dead in his home in Atlanta on 13 April 2008; he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
