Recording for the independent "swinging London" label Carnaby, The Wake actually got to appear on 'Top Of The Pops' to sing their Boys In The Band 45, which was chosen for them by concert promoter Mervyn Conn. It wasn't a memorable performance and the single flopped in the UK, as did their other 45s and album, which are best forgotten. The band had better fortune in Japan, however, where Live Today Little Girl was a smash Hit.

Bill Hurd had earlier been in Gass Company and later did session work and was in The Rubettes.
