The album features original Big Star members Alex Chilton and Jody Stephens on guitar and drums respectively, with two more recent recruits, Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow who play second guitar and bass. Auer and Stringfellow had been members of The Posies before joining Big Star in 1993 for sporadic live performances and tours.[11] The four band members share lead vocal duty across the album's twelve tracks, with Chilton singing the majority.
