Notes

On July 8th, 1976, the Doo-Dooettes and Le Forte Four as representatives of the L.A. Free Music Society gave a performance at the Brand Art Center in Glendale, California. For their portion of the event, Le Forte Four tried to play back prerecorded tapes through 44 pyramid shaped headphones. Both the tapes and the headphones were specifically designed for the concert. The Doo-Dooettes played live.

L-44 wishes to thank: Steve Jackson, John Payne, Sean Phillips and Bob Wallace. L.A.F.M.S. wishes to thank: Cunningham Press, (mastering by) Mister Ed, Marilyn at the Brand, Jan Paulshus, the Bikini Fan Club, Ettes-cetera. Doo-Dooettes give special thanks to Ace for saxaphone [sic] on "Children", Smegma for spiritual and financial support, to Jan Paulshus for the recording and mixing and to Thomas Foon MacFarlane for help on "Mojave".
