In 1979, after the release of a non-album single "Cathy's Clown", a cover version of The Everly Brothers' 1960 hit, which was produced by Bruce Welch, the band were released from their contract with A&M and discontinued the Tarney-Spencer Band. "Cathy's Clown" single received airplay on London's Capital Radio (95.8FM/194 mW) but it missed the national chart. It did chart in the Netherlands however. Two years after the band broke up, "No Time to Lose", was used in 1981; when MTV was launched, it occasionally aired the track's music video. A&M then reissued single, which charted a second time on the Hot 100, reaching No. 74.
