[There's a quote from Mike Wilhelm in the guestbook at johncipollina.com, which ends with:
...John leaving his hospital bed in '85 to come to Tres Virgos Studio to play on my record for free. A real gentleman, a great musician, an old soul.

| Kenny Streight is listed on the CD between Rymer and Chris Wilson - which would suggest that he appears on the earlier LP - but he isn't listed on the page on New Rose's web site which has details of the "Mike Wilhelm" LP. | |
| Rick Kunstler is listed on the CD cover, but Rick Kunstlet is listed on the LP. | |
| D. Orso is listed on the CD cover, but D. Corso is listed on the LP. | |
