Fuse (Fuse album)

A single was released on Ken Adamany's Smack Records label with the tunes "Hound Dog" and "Crusin for Burgers.

Tom and I had the stick-to-it-iveness and positive thinking to know what we wanted to do, so we split the band and went off to hang out in England.... That Fuse stuff stinks.

In fact Craig, Chip and Tom Peterson were bandmates in Toastin Jam, the band Rick Nielsen essentially joined when he broke up the version of The Grim Reapers that was a cover band in order to pursue creating original music with the talented musicians in Toastin Jam.

Jackie Mills produced quality psychedelic rock records with Kaleidoscope and The Floating Bridge before working with Fuse.

Fuse had been together for less than a year when they recorded the album, so presumably the material was written in that short period of time, and the band members were novice songwriters.
