[LP2 inner sleeve:]
Although this album was compiled from four concerts in the mid-west of The United States, some additional recording took place not a thousand miles away from the home of the artiste. The generic term of this process is "cheating". Care has been taken to keep the essence of the gigs intact, including "Human imperfection".
