Note:
The album was released on several labels both in 85 and 86 and with
different album covers. The first release in 85 was recorded at the
Morning studios in Milan and featured in Europe a red cover (top) on
some issues and a blue cover on other issues (left; click for a bigger
view). On
that issue Petrus was both the producer (with Kay Williams) and execuitive
producer. According to the second release in 86 however Earl Monroe
was the executive producer and Kay Williams the producer. The album
was also recorded in the Castle studios in Milan instead of Morning
studios in Milan. The second release must obviously have been edited
and released after Petrus death in 86. The
cover of the US release in 86 was also completely different in its design
than the European releases, actually it looked awful. Why Genie was
recorded and/or edited in two different locations is unknown, even though
it's not unusual to release different editions of the same record.
