* SeasonalRot: The band's material after the departure of Damo Suzuki is held in considerably lower regard than their prior records. While ''Soon Over Babaluma'' is well-regarded, the albums after that are treated with increasing disdain thanks to the band's shift away from their experimental style. The one major exception is ''Delay 1968'', and even then, it was an archival release.

The one major exception is ''Delay 1968'', and even then, it was an archival release. This is reflected in Restless Retro's reissues of the band's catalog for the North American market in the early '90s, which stop at ''Soon Over Babaluma'' before briefly jumping over to ''Delay 1968''.
