James Chance and the Contortions

A music video for the single was directed, filmed and animated by 19 year old Dylan Greenberg and is considered the first Contortions music video to make significant use of dramatic digital effects, such as Chance's face being manipulated to appear as if it were melting.

Bass player George Scott played with Lydia Lunch and Michael Paumgarten in 8-Eyed Spy.

[5] Shortly thereafter, guitarist Jody Harris formed Raybeats with Don Christensen, George Scott III and Pat Irwin.

Steven Kramer played organ and percussion in the second incarnation of the Contortions in 1979–80, and later led the Twin Cities MN funk/polka band The Wallets.

[6] Some of the members of James White and the Blacks, notably Joseph Bowie, separated from Chance and formed the band Defunkt.
