Recorded and released in 1997, the album was produced by Don Fleming, who has worked with former weezer tourmates [[Teenage Fanclub]], among others. The album included re-recorded versions of the A & B-sides of their debut single, [["Free Lunch"]], as well as twelve new songs. The initial release featured a hidden track, a vocal performace by the Croppers' first-born daughter Kiefer, who also posed for the cover photo. | ||
The album was reissued by Restless Records in 1998 under the name ''Chopper One'', with new artwork, and a newly-recorded single [["A Punk Named Josh"]] replacing "Mary's Clothes" (suspiciously, the only song with a co-writing credit by former member Tyrone Rio)in the otherwise unchanged track listing - although the original hidden track was omitted. This release heralded a new line-up for the band, which added guitarist Dallan Baumgarten, and replaced original drummer Rio with Troy Zeigler. | The album was reissued by Restless Records in 1998 under the name ''Chopper One'', with new artwork, and a newly-recorded single [["A Punk Named Josh"]] replacing "Mary's Clothes" (suspiciously, the only song with a co-writing credit by former member Tyrone Rio)in the otherwise unchanged track listing - although the original hidden track was omitted.
