Notes
Limited colored vinyl edition in deluxe gatefold packaging. First domestically available edition of the album for the US market.
Includes full-color 10" booklet featuring photography, album credits and lyrics for all songs (except "I Want To See You Go Wild", for unknown reasons)
Tracks on "Last Side" were brand new for this release and have also been featured on the Mother Of Mankind compilation years later, with the exception of "We Will Boogie", which has not been re-released elsewhere. It is a techno track loosely based on Andrew's "Party Hard", and it ends with the moaning sounds section that can also be heard at the end of the final version of "A.W.K.", as also featured on Mother Of Mankind.
Vinyl cut and pressing credits adapted from runouts.

Reviews
- Hope this gets re-done at some point probably won’t though as not sure Andrew W.K ever actually existed ;) Fantastic album, Lovely package, terrible sound. Deserves more care and attention. Maybe one day when the world catches on
- The mastering job on the LP is terrible. Flat, lacks dynamics, bass is poor. Sounds like a CD played with a blanket over the speaker.
