  • Two versions of the album were released. The difference on the album's cover is the band having simply changed the text from having the band name on the bottom, to the top, and vice versa for the album title. The main differences in these two releases, musically, are the songs "Oh Virginia," and the extended version of "I Believe." Originally, the song "Oh Virginia" featured an electric lead guitar intro, and electric rhythm guitar throughout the track, played by Curt Benton, accompanied by his harmonica playing. The re-released album contains this song in an almost completely acoustic version, with Curt Benton only playing the harmonica. The extended version of "I Believe" is absent from the original version.
