There were only a few original songs played along with several Western cover songs. They were one of the few bands that was allowed to perform 1988 in the Capital Workers Gymnasium Indoor Stadium. However at that time, Lao Wu was not on guitars, but Gao Qi was.
In 1989, they produced a record, with the following lineup: Liu Jun Li, Lao Wu, Cheng Jin, Zang Tian Shuo and Wang Di. The tape was released, however due to the Tiananmen Incident more than a few hundred copies could not be sold. Later in Liu Jun Li left the band and entered the band of Cui Jian, which was one (but a major one) for the break up of White Angel.
