“Release features no writer's credits on the label of the record itself, or anywhere else on the release for that matter. Due to the "TI" in the runout information, this is a Terre Haute pressing. Front, back, and gatefold all have the "burlap" texture on it. On the back of the album jacket, CRC is printed in the bottom left corner. Version is also believed to have been packaged with a plain white inner sleeve, no cutout for the label. The runouts are hand-etched, except for the stamped Sterling Tracks A1 to A3, A5 to B2, B4, B5: Tuff Gong Music (ASCAP) Tracks A4, B3: Cayman Music (ASCAP)”
