After that album, Evans decided to leave the band, causing the band to break up in 1973. Captain Beyond re-formed in 1976, with singer Willy Daffern, and Caldwell back on the drums. They released ‘Dawn Explosion’ in 1977, but broke up again in 1978. The band re-formed once again in 1998 and released an EP, ‘Night train calling’.
