The club minute books detail the many spats the club had with CAMS. It was only when Ronke became a delegate to the National Council of CAMS that the club believed it had a chance of putting its side of the story forward or of achieving its goals. The “We are CAMS, we have the ultimate say” mentality continually irked Ronke, and he vowed to do something about it. Ronke was very much his own man, the veritable square peg in a round hole, the fly in the ointment, and his was often the lone voice crying in the wilderness about matters that affected the running and viability of the club.

The LP included one composition by the whole band (excepting Stewart), the instrumental "Fly in the Ointment". This was the only joint composition by the four instrumentalists to make it onto any of their original albums; usually their efforts were relegated to the B-sides of singles - such as "Ointment"s contemporary, "Skewiff (mend the fuse)" (which served as B-side to the "Cindy Incidentally" single, a UK No. 2). Stewart's compositions for the album were written mostly in tandem with Wood and McLagan, although in a departure from the norm two more songs were written by Stewart in sole partnership with Lane. One of these, "Flags And Banners", featured (again unusually) Stewart accompanying Wood on either banjo or a secondary guitar part, while Lane handled vocal duties.
