Notes

Issued on red Columbia 2-Eye "'360 Sound' Stereo" labels with all tracks listed below center hole.

"P" faintly stamped in runouts denotes Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Pitman, pressing. Remainder of runouts stamped.

A later Pitman pressing (Blood, Sweat And Tears) has a different label layout, typesetting, fonts and content (e.g., "STEREO" beneath the catalog number, absent on this issue's label).

A1, A4: Adapted from "Trois Gymnopédies"
B1: Special thanks for filling in for Chuck Winfield, for bringing a pocket full of miracles and for being so attractive.
B4: BS&T also thanks Miss Lucy Angle (in her Poll Parrot shoes) whose footsteps can be heard at the close of this selection. She is also very attractive. She appears through the courtesy of James William Guercio.

BS&T would like to take this opportunity to thank Jim Guercio and Roy Halee for their patience, endurance and dogmatism throughout the making of this record.

All selections are BMI except "Smiling Phases" (ASCAP).

    A great work that is underrated. This is one of those albums that the ratio of how great it is and for how cheaply it can be purchased, makes it a must have. It is a classic that I hope a young generation will discover.
