"Fun fact: The story behind the album title is that the first side starts in the key of F#, and the second side stars in the key of A#, with the infinite loop at the end... F♯A♯∞!"

"If you look at the mod history for the album, many people have tried to change it to the CD tracklisting and the suggested change has been turned down multiple times. The version currently on the site came out over a year before the CD version, and therefore, according to BEA rules, this is the proper tracklisting, and it's not going to change.

The CD reissue is far superior to what's on the site now, I agree. My rating is based on the CD version, and so are my track ratings."
