Recorded At Trion Sound Studio
Lacquer Cut At Elaton (2)
Recorded at Trion Sound, Frankfurt am Main, in April 1984.
Cut in Germany.

Screen printed cover made of a large folded sheet. Booklet with lyrics and illustrations.
On label side B, track B5 is misspelled Trendre La Lune Avec Les Dentes. Title is correct on insert.

None of the material on this record was written or rehearsed. The two pieces by other composers (B4, B6) were known to us all & introduced into our improvisations spontaneously, to surprise ourselves. All tracks were recorded in real time & played live in the studio. A very few overdubs were added afterwards, mainly Bass & some Vocals.

The mixes on A3, B1, B2 are different from those on the German version of this record. The mixes here are the first mixes made by the group; those on the Riskant version are remixes supervised by Riskant. 'Six Rays' on this version is also a remix, which we have used. 2ndly, Haruspices is not on the Riskant version at all, instead they have the first part of our 7 'Time Running Out'.
