The album included a cover of "Mrs. Robinson", originally by Simon & Garfunkel, and released it as a single. In fact, original pressings of the album did not include this song; it was recorded after the other tracks, with a different bass player, and included on the album following success of the single. The album also includes a cover of the song "Frank Mills" from the musical Hair.
