Much of the recording of First Leaf Fallen was done before Iain Stratton joined the band and as such, Martin Downes played drums on the songs "Like A Rain", "Life Less Lived", "Had It All", "Last Goodbye", "Time & Time Again", "When I Get Down" and "Runaway".

The liner notes dedicate the song "Last Goodbye" to James McCue, a Lance Corporal who was a casualty in Iraq.

The track "Like A Rain" was re-recorded and subsequently appeared on the second Logan album, Welcome To The Wasteland, this time featuring Iain Stratton on drums.

"When I Get Down" has also been re-recorded and was part of Logan's third album, Cruel Little World, from which it was the group's first single.

The album has since been pulled out of circulation due to the band's opinion that it did not live up to the material found on later releases.
