The tape has been bootlegged at least twice, in [url=/Skinny-Puppy-Back-Forth/release/2767522]1986[/url] and [url=/Skinny-Puppy-Back-Forth/release/2767485]1989[/url]. These tracks appear in a remastered form on [r=11669]. The mix of 'Sleeping Beast' included here is a different (and shorter) mix from those included later on the [url=https://www.discogs.com/Skinny-Puppy-Remission/master/12128]'Remission'[/url] and 'Back & Forth Series 2' releases. On the cover ”The Pit” is stated to be track 1 on Side B, but ”The Pit” is actually put as the last track on side A. Side B begins with ”Dead Of Winter”.
