[edit] Release Data

This album was released as a CD by Collectables Records in 1994 as #COL-CD-0588.

[edit] Musical Highlights

The album contains the music on all three of their singles, plus demo recordings of their first two singles (including the original "B" side of their first single). A mark of successful songwriting is that the album can be enjoyed when two versions of the same song are practically side by side. Additionally: "Their demos were as good as many contemporary groups' released singles." [1] (Apparently "Sweet Child of Nothingness" is the only song that was not written by a band member).

There are also four unreleased recordings by band leader Jim Quarles to close the album. Presumably Quarles wrote these songs as well.

All of their reissued recordings are included with the exception of "Your Mind Works in Reverse" (which is included on another Collectables Records CD, The Human Expression and other Psychedelic Groups).
