Album sequence changed for this reissue compared to the original release. "These Boots" cover song moved from A4 to B4, with all other tracks shifted up accordingly. The cover song was removed from all releases starting in 1995 after threats form the original songwriter, Lee Hazelwood, to sue due to the version containing some altered lyrics. In 2002 only, the album was released with the cover track added back to the album but it contained bleeps over the altered lyrics. This 2002 release contained the same album track sequencing, alternate cover and 1984 3-track demo songs as found on this release. However, the version of the cover song on this release has the vocals re-recorded all with of the original lyrics so that it does not have to be censored. This release also adds additional live tracks not contained on the 2002 release.
