Two of its former members, Jim McCarty and Johnny Badanjek, later reunited to establish the nucleus of a new band called The Rockets, after McCarty found some fame with the hard rock outfit Cactus. In 1969 Ryder & Johnny Badanjek and some other musicians established a new band called The Band Detroit aka Detroit, which recorded an eponymous named album in 1971.
