− | |studio contribution = Since the band was created after the fact, apart from [[Eric Leeds]]'s saxophone the band wasn't involved in creating their album to great extent, apart from [[Paul Peterson|St. Paul]] and [[Susannah Melvoin|Susannah]], Much like [The Time]] before them. In fact the band drummer [[Jellybean Johnson]], just like on [[The Time]]'s early albums is not on any of the record and [[Jerome Benton]]'s contributions to [[The Family]] are also minimal. | + | |studio contribution = Since the band was created after the fact, apart from [[Eric Leeds]]'s saxophone the band wasn't involved in creating their album to great extent, apart from [[Paul Peterson|St. Paul]] and [[Susannah Melvoin|Susannah]], Much like [[The Time]] before them.

| |live contribution = The band never performed live expect for their sole performance at First Avenue on 13 August 1985 for which they rehearsed about a month. An idea to have violas ans cellos in the live line-up to reproduce [[Clare Fischer]]'s orchestral arrangements was abandoned. | | |live contribution = The band never performed live expect for their sole performance at First Avenue on 13 August 1985 for which they rehearsed about a month.
