On the United States LP, the title track on Side 2 ends abruptly, as if to add dramatic finality. On most cuttings, the song ends just as the cut is brought to the runoff groove. On the Deram U.S. CD, the song fades out. The abrupt ending was restored on the BGO CD release, pairing this album with Street Corner Talking on a single CD.
