Notes
Blue-black rather than orange labels; triangle-in-circle symbol left of center hole.Chet Bennett remaster, does not have "MASTERED BY CAPITOL" or "Wly" anywhere in runout.
Still says "Mastered at Capitol Studios" in gatefold interior.
Pitman pressing.
Gatefold jacket, no lyric inner sleeve.
FE 35050 appears on Gatefold sleeve and labels, 35050 appears inside Gatefold (bottom right).
Track times shown on labels differ from some other, similar pressings.
All songs recorded and mixed at Tom Scholz' Hideaway Studio, except piano on "A Man I'll Never Be" recorded at Northern Studio, Maynard, Mass.
"Special thanks to Cindy whose unfailing support made this album possible, to John Boylan and Putney for their expert advice, to everyone who helped assemble and bail out the Hideaway Studio, and to everyone at Epic for being so patient."
