Wood died only days before the scheduled release of the band's debut album, "Apple", thus ending the group's hopes of success.  The album was finally released a few months later.

After one year, the band relocated to New York City and were signed to Atlantic Records within five months.  One of their first New York shows was opening up for the British band Dogs D'Amour and Mother Love Bone (featuring Jeff Ament and Stone Gossard who would form Pearl Jam after the death of lead singer Andrew Wood).  Their self-titled debut was recorded in London in the autumn of 1989 by David Bowie and T.Rex producer Tony Visconti and released in February 1990.  They were reviewed favorably as a cross between The Replacements and Hanoi Rocks.  The band cited their musical influences including KISS, The Ramones, The Replacements, Rick Springfield and George Jones and toured with New Jersey rockers Danger Danger, former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley and Phoenix rockers Icon (band).  The band let their contract with Atlantic expire in 1991 due to poor promotion on the part of the label.
