When Larry and Brent started to plan for the second album, they took a chance by sending of a tape of some of the new songs to their all time hero Todd Rundgren (who around this time just moved up to the Bay Area) hoping that he was going to be interested in possibly getting involved or even producing the album. Todd responded the next day saying that he´d put everything else aside to do it. 

”I Dont Mind At All” the single off  ”YoYo” took off and the band been played on heavy rotation on MTV plus Top Of The Pops, American Bandstand, More Music (Canada) and the Johnny Carson Show. The band was asked by Heart to be support to their ”Bad Animals” tour, which would see Larry and his band play in front of 20,000 people every night. 

After a promotional tour of Europe and another US tour with Belinda Carlisle, the band started work on the third Bourgeois Tagg album. But after sessions with Peter Wolf and some on their own it all came to an end. Bourgeois Tagg broke up. 

Larry toured the US twice and Japan once with Todd Rundgren. Touring did not end for Larry after that, as he was asked to do the the ”Change Of Season” tour with Hall & Oates which brought him to Europe and Japan as well some gigs through out Europe. 

Larry also worked on the ”Second Wind” album with Todd Rundgren. 

In the fall of 1990 Larry decided to cut some of his own songs bringing in players such as Lyle Workman, Mike Urbano, Prairie Prince (Tubes). A lot of these songs would eventually end up on Larry´s debut solo album ”With A Skeleton Crew." 

In 1998 Larry released ”Rover,” his second album. Working on this album were Rembrandts main man Danny Wilde, Chris Rodrigues (Wyonna, Shania Twain, Kenny Loggins). ”Rover” also feature two songs co-written by Larry's former side kick Brent Bourgeois which they wrote in 1997 when the two got back together for the first time since the break up of their previous band.

I've had this notion for some time now that albums should be named like dogs. In fact, my working title for the album was "Spot" for a while. But in writing and recording the songs, I found myself working with so many different people, and going so many places to get the songs down on tape, that I figured "Rover" would be more appropriate.

Bud Gordon - a fine artist in Sacramento - painted a 1940's calendar-art picture of a girl holding a puppy which I meant to be the cover of the album. If I'd thought about it a little harder, I would have realized that my visual pun - the dog, Rover - was completely lost on the Europeans who released my album. (Who knows what they call their dogs, right?) So, anyway, they very politely and quietly replaced my idea with the present cover.

Larry Tagg has prodigious songwriting chops, as well as being one of the best bass players around. I've seen this man perform both with bands in the Sacramento, CA area as well as on tour with Todd Rundgren, and he is a monster performer. His Beatle influence is near the surface in many of the cuts on this album, and every one of the tracks on "Skeleton Crew" is well crafted and melodically memorable. His style never clutters up or obscures the lyric or the melody. He prefers substance over flash, but can deliver flash when called for. The musicians he assembled for this album deliver tasty licks - there isn't a cliche on the whole project. This is one of the few albums I own that I listen to every track every time I put it on. I think it is a miracle that a major label never picked up on him. I never miss a chance to see him perform. He is vastly underrated and under-distributed.
