Compact Disc Releases

• The 1993 UK CD issue on Virgin paired this album with New Traditionalists and included Devo's cover of Allen Toussaint's "Working in the Coal Mine" from the movie Heavy Metal that was included in the original LP album release of New Traditionalists.

• The 1995 (copyright 1994) US CD issue on Infinite Zero Archive/American Recordings (the first American version on CD) came with two bonus tracks: the "Secret Agent Man" single b-side "Soo Bawlz" (written by Mark Mothersbaugh) and the Brian Eno-produced "Penetration in the Centrefold," (written by G.V. Casale and M. Mothersbaugh), originally the B-side of the UK release of "The Day My Baby Gave Me a Surprize."

• The 2005 remastered re-issue on Collectables includes no bonus tracks.

• In 2008, the album was digitally remastered and released as part of the box set This is the Devo Box in Japan.

• While the original US issue and the Collectables re-issue label the final track as "Red Eye Express," the UK issue and most other reissues label it simply as "Red Eye."

• On March 29, 2010, Warner Bros. Records announced it would be issuing a newly remastered and expanded edition of the album on CD. Released on April 17, the bonus tracks included on the release are the spoken word piece "General Boy Visits Apocalypse Now" (first available on the compilation Pioneers Who Got Scalped), the single b-sides "Soo Bawlz" and "Penetration in the Centrefold," the alternate mix of "Be Stiff," erroneously labeled the "single mix," and a live version of "Secret Agent Man," recorded in 1980.
