UK edition

The UK edition, on Blast First, was originally released on 10" vinyl. It was later reissued on a mini CD with a plastic clip-on cover to fit in all CD players.

It has the same tracks with slightly different names and in a different order to the US release.

  1. "Bon Song"
  2. "1401"
  3. "Booze Tobacco"
  4. "Helicopter"

"1401" is the true name of "The Colored FBI Guy", as it is always used on set lists. The name is a reference to the address of the house that the Butthole Surfers lived in at the time.[2]
