Eric Clapton played a series of Blues Nights at the Royal Albert Hall at the start of 1990, and the Big Town Playboys were the support act. Robert Cray was also a part of the show, and he asked the band to play at his wedding a week later. They appeared on the Ronn Lucas television show and followed this with a performance at The Comic Strip end of filming party in Soho. This led to Peter Richardson reacquainting the band with Jeff Beck.
