Notes

Recorded at Château Pelly de Cornfeld, somewhere in France, 1979 with the Maison Rouge Mobile Studio and thanks to Bernie.

Comes with a full colour picture inner sleeve, an insert with pictures of the previous albums and a merchandise insert.

There exists a label variant Rainbow - Down To Earth where the letter 'B' is printed on the B-label before "THIS SIDE".
This is missing on the edition here. Otherwise identical.

    Not cut by Bob Ludwig on side 1, but rather by Ralph Copeman, since the signature is larger than the typical "RL" initials, and despite looking like an RL, is actually an "RC".
