See below for the Japanese CD reissue cover artwork. 6) Following credits were taken from the US LP release. 7) According to web sources, a 2009 remix of track 6 “Gino (The Manager)” was included in the quadruple anthology “Do What You Want Be What You Are - The Music of Daryl Hall & John Oates” released in the US on RCA Legacy 88697 36974 2 (2009).
