Guitarist Dave Brock, keyboardist Harvey Bainbridge, and bassist Alan Davey remained.

The group entered Rockfield Studios in April through to June to record this album, produced with Paul Cobbold.

Still supporting Space Bandits, 1991 commenced with perhaps the most surprising Hawkwind tour in the band’s history, without Dave Brock.

Brock’s temporary replacement was former Smart Pils guitarist Steve Bemand (who had played with Chadwick and Wishart in the Demented Stoats).

The tour began in Amsterdam on 12 March and took in Germany, Greece, Italy and France before wrapping up in Belgium on 10 April after 24 dates.
