It was the first album after Grace Slick's departure from the band, and their last full-length studio release until Loveless Fascination in 2013. The song "Wild Again" had previously been produced for the soundtrack to Cocktail (1988), and was included as a bonus track for the album's CD release  . Max Demata - Bass.

The title track actually has a Jefferson Airplane vibe. A different arrangement and Grace Slick's voice would make that song, "Love Among the Cannibals," a good candidate for . s Long John Silver album.

The pages will be updated often so come back many times to catch up on the news!. I am the singer in a well known band called The Cannibals.

The B side, Nothing Takes The Place Of You, was one of John Peel's favourites and the record is in his famous Black Box of 142 of his all-time favourite singles. This single was recorded with the first full Cannibal's lineups, the original Cannibal's. Peter Gunn, Tony Oliver and Ben Donnely went on to form the Inmates with first Bill Hurly and then Barry Masters on vocals. Dino was the last to leave the Cannibal's and was included on several other future Cannibal's releases.
