| Limited US version in stickered ‘Fang Pack’ with the catalogue number “OLE 666-2” (Other US editions begin with “OLE 542”). The booklet is the same as the cover from the regular CD issue and inside that there is a card die-cut slip-case containing the CD album. Printed inside the sleeve is a black and white image of the band which was featured as the tray image on some versions of the album (part of the image is visible through the centre hole).
This album features guest appearances by Dr. John, Bernie Worrell and Willie Weeks. In comparison to the UK release this edition has an alternate running order and replaces Tore Up & Broke with Point of View. She Said, Sweet ‘N’ Sour and Shakin’ Rock ‘N’ Roll Tonight were released as singles. There are many different editions of this album with alternate track listings and running orders.
