◆Dave Swarbrickによるライナーノツより◆
「Smiddyburn was taken from the name of the house in Scotland where I was living at the time, Called 'Back of Smiddyburn'.」
「Flittin' is a colloquial Aberdeen word meaning to move house ... which I did.」
「Both albums were recorded in July 1981 within a fourteen day period - I imagine this would account for their continuity.」
