The three tracks on the analogue A-side are all meticulously arranged, even the improvisation-style passages, and show that the sound of early Henry Cow had reached its peak. The B-side is an improvisation-driven piece that hints at the possibilities of Cow's later work. Long-awaited encore pressing in paper jacket, 7 bonus tracks, remastered in 2015, SHM-CD!
