Introduction
The record was recorded on a Teac 3340 4-track tape recorder on 10" tape, approximately between 1970 and 1972. Because it was recorded with only 4 tracks, it required lots of bouncing down of the tracks onto new tape, which then made that mix of the initial 4 tracks unchangeable, in order to add 3 more tracks, etc.
About 150 original copies were pressed at the LRS record pressing facility in Burbank, CA.
The UFO photo that appears on the lower right corner (sometimes covered by the sticker) was an outdoor mural that appeared on the side of "One World Family Commune" in Berkeley, in the days before it became what is now an Amoeba record store today at that location.
The photo of Bailey Peagasus Pendergrass III on the left center was shot by Charles on Bailey's girlfriend's dormitory balcony as a candid photo, without telling Bailey what it was going to be used for. Other photos of flying saucers were probably done using frisbees.
Bailey and Stewart Copeland didn't meet during the recording of this LP. Their single encounter happened later when Stewart was about to work with Curved Air.

Variants, special editions and re-releases
The different "Recorded in Berkeley" stickers on the front shrink wrap were drawn on the airplane by Charles Ostman while flying from Berkeley to Burbank to get the record pressed. Some albums do not have the front stickers. Some of the albums have the back sticker on the shrink wrap, some have it on the sleeve, and some don't have it at all.
