The song "Can't Stop Rockin'" was featured in the 1993 film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III.
The song "Velcro Fly" was an element in Stephen King's The Dark Tower III: The Waste Lands; Eddie keeps hearing drums playing off in the distance and thinks it sounds like, then later realizes it is, the drum track for "Velcro Fly".
