Originally known as the final incarnation of Winnipeg act The Fifth, Next... were signed by the late John Poser to Warner Brothers around 1971 and released the band's debut album 'Dusty Shoes'.

The album cover is notable as it was the first for the Warner's Canadian office that was actually designed in Canada.

Belanger would go on to front Epic recording artists Harlequin; Sellar is still performing as a current member of the 1960's Manitoba act Satan & The D-Men; Watts has since passed away.
