Black & light grey labels and fold-out cover. Front sleeve image of a rubbing of a ‘zero’ house numeral. Back sleeve has the track title and artists, along with the address of Banned Production (given as P.O.Box 323, Fremont, CA.94537, USA) - all repeated four times. Picture labels feature the same ‘zero’ image as cover - no information provided. The words ‘An Ordinary Shovel’ etched into run-off on A-side and ‘An Extraordinary Shovel’ into B-side run-off. Originated as a performance piece wherein ‘zero’ house numerals were filed, scraped and otherwise ‘dissolved’. Other sounds, derived from circular movements of metal objects, were later added to the mix. Mixing and artwork by David Jackman. Original performance, in David Jackman’s garden shed, was recorded on a 1970’s mono cassette deck. All sounds were later transferred to 8-track for mix-down.
