By the time the band began to demo the third Danny Wilson album in 1991, all three members had written more songs than would fit onto the album, leading to arguments and frustration. Kit Clark made an attempt to solve the situation by persuading Virgin Records to let him record a solo album, but was rebuffed - following this, he decided to leave the band. Deciding that Danny Wilson would be too much reduced without Kit's contribution ("he was kind of a really good force just in terms of ideas and the flavour of things"), Gary Clark opted to break up the band, maintaining its creative integrity and the friendships between all members before both were spoiled.
