  1. WWA (World Wide Artists) Label, Issued this album. But only in The U.K. and Italy. And due to limited distribution, it was on the VERTIGO Label for the rest of the world pressings, editions… Also, regardless of who wrote what.. Everything GG is composed by Shulman, Shulman, Minnear in accordance with their Publishing… Same as all Lennon/McCartney songs, they are always included as Composers regardless of who wrote what! Credits shouldn’t be messed with unless there is an actual Legal dispute. And, though Dan Bornemark is a dear friend of mine, He did Not mix this album. He would most definitely like to do that, but as such, The original Master Multitrack 2″ tapes are lost in the wind…
