Note: The first Elektra release in 85, like the Mega record (a Swedish record company) release was both recorded at the Morning studios in Milan according to the album covers. The differences between these two was that the bandinfo of some unknown reason was excluded on the Mega release. That release also got a red cover (top) compared to the blue Elektra one (left; click for a bigger view). According to the second Elektra US release in 86 however Earl Monroe was the executive producer and Kay Williams the producer. That album was recorded in Castle studios in Milan. The second release must obviously have been edited and released after Petrus death 86 The cover on that second Elektra release in 86 was also completely different in its design that the releases in 85, actually it looked awful. Why they recorded and/or edited the album on two different locations is unknown, even though it's not unusual to release different editions of the same record.
