The first leg of the Little Robbers tour, which included an appearance on "Saturday Night Live", started in January 1984 but ended abruptly in February with the firing of Garay as manager for personal reasons. Drummer Platshon was dropped, and Glascock resumed his spot on the drum throne. The band continued performing under new management, and they recorded songs for two film soundtracks: "Long Day" was recorded for "Moscow on the Hudson" and "In the Jungle" was recorded for "Teachers". By mid-summer, the band was back in the recording studio working on new material.
