The last track, ‘Killer Bees” was written by Ross Wilson, James Black and J.J.Hackett. Pat was backed on the album by Ross Wilson with son Daniel included.

Just gotta love how on Foxtel, when they play Bop Girl, they credit it as "Bop Girl / Pat Wilson, featuring Nicole Kidman". I guess fame means everything. I can laugh... Nicole was a friend of a friend at a theatre group in Melbourne in the 70's... I can honestly say... "wow, I went out to dinner with Nicole Kidman"... cute girl in those days too...
