Steve Chapman returns to replace Grantham who leaves Poco when they fail to secure a recording deal. Without songwriting royalties to rely on, Grantham has to seek a steady gig. Poco again keeps a low profile taking on the occasional gig. Sundrud often takes jobs playing with other acts on the bill, especially Nicolette Larson.
