Trivia
The cover of this LP appears in the Beatles' 1964 film A HARD DAY'S NIGHT at the very beginning of a hotel room scene, in black and white, as was the rest of that movie. A bit of jazzy piano is heard as the album cover is displayed, but it's not from this record, but rather from Paul McCartney, who's noodling around on a piano in the hotel room.
