Remarks
- Released on CNT label, York, since the band didn't have the money to release it themselves on Merciful Release.
- The cover features Francis Bacon's Head VI, a view of which can be found here at the WebMuseum
- The title is derived from the poem I Sing The Body Electric by Walt Whitman (1819 - 1892).
- Some copies have a slighter red on the cover than others.
- The covers are either thin paper or thick and glossy.
