There is also the intrumental 'Leopard Ray'. Produced by Alex Sadkin and Tom Bailey, this set of recordings really shows the band progression into one of the big pop acts of the 80's.

The band had truly made their mark on the scene, the album becoming one of the biggest sellers of 1984.With a fluid line up which at times reached upto 7 members on stage, a change in musical direction took Tom Bailey, Alannah Curry and Joe Leway in a more mainstream direc- tion than those of the early days of the first two albums; A Product of...(Participation) and Set which where were far more experimental, than Quick Step or anything that followed.
