COMMENTS		Issued in a die-cut sleeve with obi strip and insert in Japanese. Back sleeve reads: "NARRATION BY - Red Robinson Licensed from SAN JUAN MUSIC GROUP 1637 UTICA AVENUE, BROOKLYN, NY 11234 U.S.A." The audio content mainly features comments from John Lennon and people close to him regarding his controversial remarks about Christianity. In the US, a picture disc called "TIMELESS (Silhouette Music SM-10004)" was released in March 1981. The disc images are identical to the original Silhouette Music releases, with the original blue text "℗, © Silhouette Music" detail around the outer edge clearly blacked out and replaced in white with "Trio Records" (although the blue text "All Rights Reserved" remains from the original) What differs is the tracklist containing a different interview on Side B & less tracks overall, according to the sleeve & assuming it is correct.
