[l408779] – A “PRC” etching found in the runout ‘deadwax’ of the vinyl. Also “PRC on the Labels

Kosh – A swirl of rumors greeted the album cover, stories that there were supernatural or satanic references buried in the lyrics and in the artwork. Kosh scoffs at those reports but eagerly confirms that there is a mysterious figure on the balcony, visible only on the LP version. Left Inner Gatefold, upper balcony middle opening, you will see a face looking down. Use magnification

Side “A” – These also had text engraved in the run-out groove of each side, continuing an in-joke trend the band had started with their third album On the Border. The text reads: Side one: “Is It 6 O’Clock Yet?”;
Side “B” – “V.O.L. Is Five-Piece Live”, indicating that the song “Victim of Love” was recorded in a live session in studio, with no overdubbing.
