 Rich Warren would go on to having the Sons play countless times live on "Midnight Special" and has called the trio "Chicago's favorite folk group".He would later honor Sons by proclaiming that Sons were the only performers whose CD "(King Fisher King)" he had played every track from on his radio show.Nancy Walker left the group in 1998 to pursue a solo career, so Demel and Roper chose Deborah Lader to replace Walker on the strength of her multi-instrumental abilities, her harmony singing and her writing craft.
