Terry Bozzio left Frank Zappa's band to join UK (who broke up) and then Missing Persons (who also broke up), and so did not return to Zappa's band afterwards. As a result, when Missing Persons broke up he became a session drummer, and has played on many, many records and been in demand ever since.
Warren Cuccurullo also got a big break playing with Duran Duran afterwards, playing such memorable guitar riffs as "Serious".
Creator Couple: Terry and Dale Bozzio. The band broke up when they divorced.
"Clandestine People" was originally written in 1981 (prior to the band's first album Spring Session M), but it did not get recorded in studio until 1984's Rhyme & Reason.
"Dark and Dangerous Guy" was written in 1986, after Color In Your Life had come out, and was played live, but did not last long because the band broke up. "Dark and Dangerous Guy" was resurrected by the band for their reunion in 2001 and played live. The reunion lasted only three shows before the band broke up again, due to drummer Terry Bozzio and his ex-wife singer Dale Bozzio arguing. Both a 1986 and a 2001 live version appeared on the Lost Tracks" compilation. The 2001 version features Dale singing with a worn out voice, and tons of echo on the recording.
"Action Reaction" was actually demoed twice back in 1980 and 1981, but the studio versions were not released until the 2000 reissue CD of Rhyme & Reason (1981 version), and the 2002 Lost Tracks compilation (1980 version) respectively. The song was played live back then too.
Follow the Leader: Dale's bright fashion sense was very influential on 80s fashion. Lady Gaga and Gwen Stefani have both mentioned that they were inspired by her as well (Dale's influence is blatant on the cover of Gaga's EP The Cherrytree Sessions, which takes inspiration from Spring Session M.)
Keep Circulating the Tapes: Their three studio albums are out of print on CD despite having been released originally on Capitol Records, a major label. Their song I'm The One is only available on a rare out of print compilation CD.
No Export for You: For whatever reason, Capitol UK's promotional efforts for the band ground to a halt after three singles and one album, and their subsequent two albums weren't released there. As a result, they have become quite obscure in the UK despite their musical style being popular over there, and are considered one-hit-wonders with "Words".
Other General Trivia:
One of their opening acts was a then-little-known "Weird Al" Yankovic in 1982. He was booed by the audience, who threw objects at him while he performed.
