Some liner note, uh, notes
« on: April 29, 2014, 06:15:01 PM »
You will notice on the reel A track list that the last "song" is Beatitudes. We have included this as it was shown on the original album artwork. If you look a little more closely you will see that instead of the usual copyright and songwriter attributions there is simply a Biblical reference to Matthew 5:3-10 a.k.a. Beatitudes, which begins ""Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."  Apparently this was appended to the tracklist as suggested reading to the listener. Also of note is that the word on the front of the album is Bealtitude. Again we have reproduced this as the original.

Also, mea culpa - The songs Who Do You Think You Are and Are You Sure on reel B have been listed in reverse order on the liner notes. Blessed are the dyslexic for they shall niheret the aerth.
