"All selections previously unavailable on vinyl" appears after the credits on the outer wrapper of this release, which was retailed as a 'Limited Edition'. Packaged in a heavyweight oatmeal paper wrapper, overlapped at the back and hand-fastened by a strip of shiny brown packing tape. The wrapper is overprinted with black title & track list text, whilst the illustration is navy blue. Into this wrapper 'tube' slides the gatefold sleeve. The sleeve is full-color varnish-print finished, with the cover shot oriented 90 degrees and overlapping onto back - being a full-length photo of Vliet playing his musette. The inside spread has a similar shot and a self-portrait sketch of John French to accompany his extensive liner notes. Vinyl has pale yellow labels with tracks in hand-written style and discs numbered A, B, C, D. Original material: Recorded November, 1967 at TTG Studios, Hollywood, California. Produced for Kama Sutra Productions. This production mastered at Sundazed Studios, Coxsackie, NY. (The credit for the engineer is incorrect for one of the owners of TTG [an acronym for 'Two Terrible Guys'], Ami Hadani and Tom Hidley). Mastered from the original analog recordings and pressed in 180 gram vinyl.
