Holdsworth is joined on the album by former Cream vocalist Jack Bruce (who sings “Was There?” and “Material Real”), his former Bruford bandmate, bassist Jeff Berlin, and then current Frank Zappa drummer Chad Wackerman. Former Juicy Lucy and Tempest frontman Paul Williams sings the title track.
Holdsworth claimed to have received no royalties from either release,[2] naming it as one of his least favourite recordings due to numerous creative differences with executive producer Ted Templeman.[3] Road Games nonetheless received a nomination for Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the 1984 Grammy Awards.[4][5]
