The 1989 CD edition did not correspond to the original LP, instead omitting the 1963 session and collecting the February 5, 1965 session for the first time. The 2000 CD edition restored the sequence of the original LP.

It was released in November 2014 in Japan on a limited SHM-CD that consisted of the original LP sequence, two tracks from the 1963 session that had been included in the CD edition of Straight No Filter, and the remaining tracks from the 1965 session.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars, stating: "In all this is a solid date, despite its time lapse, and one that gives us a solid picture of the two Mobleys."[2]

gollark: But what if you want to manage a Minetest server, hmmm?
gollark: Including terminal access, `minetest.conf` editing, log viewing, a "stop/start" button, and nothing else!
gollark: MinetestServerManager™ is a Node.js program (which may use more RAM than actual Minetest does, considering) which will allow web management of minetest servers.
