Trivia[]

  • The double-LP release of this album only featured music on three sides; the fourth side was etched by the band.
  • The cover's claim of "Over one hour of uncensored sonic proof" is a joke by Devo. The CD's total length is 60:01.
  • The album cover art and title are based on the US paperback of The Beginning Was the End by Oscar Kiss Maerth.
  • This is not the full 12/9/88 concert. Pity You and Beautiful World were cut. [1]
  • “Whip It” is performed in 1980 E E A B D – E – B on FOC and Devo Live on an analog synth but live in 1988 it begins E E G# B D – E – B on a digital synth.
