Additional musicians
+ On the album, it states that Andy Newmark played drums on the song "Hands Tied"; however, drum aficionados believe he actually played on the next song "Less Than Half" instead, since the complicated rhythm pattern replicates a technique/style that he commonly used.
The album spent 41 weeks on the U.S. Billboard album charts and reached its peak position of #17 in early October 1984.[3]
