By the time this album was recorded, "Sneaky" Pete Kleinow and Bernie Leadon had left the band, leaving Chris Hillman as the sole founding member.
Wertz had previously played with Hillman in the Scottsville Squirrel Barkers.
The band also added two guest musicians for their fall 1971 tour in Byron Berline and Roger Bush from Country Gazette.
A group of Burritos led by Rick Roberts would continue to tour Europe with no original members into 1973 (to meet contractual obligations), at which point the band was officially dissolved by Roberts, bringing the original Flying Burrito Brothers to an end.
