Moon could not play in 6/8 on Music Must Change, so the drums were replaced with footsteps and cymbal crashes. Rod Argent played keyboards after John Bundrick broke his arm. The album came out in Britain on 18 August 1978 on Polydor and in the United States on MCA three days later, and reached number two in the United States and number six in Britain. Moon died on 7 September 1978.
