In May 1988, Spencer broke his wrist as the result of an “unfortunate collision” on stage with Neeson. He was substituted on a national tour by Jimi “The Human” Hocking on guitar and backing vocals. Hocking later recalled “I was called up as the result of some session work I had recently done. It was originally to fill in for one night and the tour would be cancelled. The gig went so well, that the band offered me the guitar spot for the rest of the tour, so overnight I found myself on a major rock tour at 24 years of age.” For each gig they provided a lengthy three-hour set which covered their musical history. After the tour Spencer resumed his duties on guitar and Hocking formed a new band, Jimi the Human and Spectre 7.
