United States“Another [url=/release/1516057]version[/url] of this album exists where (on the labels) the Imperial logo is a different design and the notation appearing along the edge of each label reads: "A Division Of Liberty Records, Inc., Los Angeles, California." Another [url=/release/11145916]version[/url] exists (issued without a printed inner sleeve and with the phrase "...visual sound Stereo" added to the labels). The die-cut jacket and inner sleeve (with printing on only one side) are designed to function together. When the sleeve is slowly withdrawn from the jacket Vivian Stanshall (center) has his eyes replaced by small red and blue illustrations, the eyes of "Legs" Larry Smith (left) move about and Neil Innes (right) has musical notation pass across his forehead (the U.K. release features the same arrangement except that the images comprising Vivian Stanshall's left and right "eyes" are reversed). The back of the jacket displays (left to right) Dennis Cowan, Roger Ruskin-Spear and Rodney Slater. "Rhino" Rodney Slater appears by kind permission of "The Beano"”
