Fred did all the drums with the exception of "Last Great American Whale" & "Dime Store Mystery" where the percussionist was Maureen "Moe" Tucker. The Record and Mixdown Engineer was Jeffrey Lesser except on "Romeo Had Juliette" where Fred manned the boards. The album was mixed by Fred, Mike, Jeffrey & myself.

Equipment was handled by Frank Newberry while the production was coordinated by Shirley Divers and Jennifer Gross. Oh, the background vocals are by me & Jeffrey and on "Dirty Blvd.," Dion DiMucci.
