Notes
Al's first single to go Gold.
The original A-side to this single was going to be "Midnight Star", which ironically didn't appear on any single until it backed 1985's "One More Minute" to help promote The Compleat Al.
"Eat It" was the last song recorded for the album, a pattern that would follow for the lead-off singles on most subsequent ALbums.
In 1985, Scotti Bros. reissued "Eat It" as a "Golden Oldies" single (backing it with "I Lost On Jeopardy"). In 1993, the Collectibles company (specializing in reissuing 7" singles for retail sale and jukeboxes) reissued the 1985 single, even leaving the words "Golden Oldies" printed on it. The only differences between the two reissues are the appearance of the Collectibles logo and the fact that the label on the original Golden Oldies single had the traditional Scotti Bros. "brick wall" background design, while the Collectibles single had a solid gray-colored label.
