Notes

First release of this album on CD. The obi states (in Japanese) "YMO and Snakeman Show meet - long-awaited CD debut of a big hit album!"

NB: This CD was repressed in 1992 as part of the Originals series, see Yellow Magic Orchestra - 増殖 X∞Multiplies. Aside from a series obi and revised distributor (now Nippon Columbia), the releases are similar, including original cat. no. and stated release date.

Recorded at Studio "A" & The Studio Doo Wap.

The original gatefold sleeve spread is reproduced on the inlay card.

Errors in the tracklisting (on disc and traycard):
6. Here We Go Again~Toghten Up [sic]
9. Snakeman Show (The Magnificent Seven) [subtitle on wrong track, should be on track 10]
