During the 1980’s in America, this record above any another drew the ire of religious fundamentalist twits who were sure backwards messages in rock-n-roll records were going to make us all go to hell. This record has backwards masking on it in a couple of places that are very clear. Track A1 has the message “The music is reversible, but time is not…turn back…turn back.” when played backwards. On side two after the song ‘Strange Magic’ and during the beginning of “Down Home Town” there is another message. Spinning the disc backwards reveals something like “catch the mighty water fall taste the mighty water fall”. Other clues that this record is for all you Satan worshipers out there, is the fact that they look possessed with red glowing eyes on the back cover. Ok Jeff, thanks for the evil tips. The dark lord is proud of you.
