Tracks A3 and B1 were recorded live at the Carré Thorigny Theatre Paris on 30th October 1972; the remainder were recorded at Advision Studios, London, in November 1972.

Additional note: 
there is much confusion about the actual sequence of the album but, after checking 2 different copies of the UK version, the actual data are as follows

1st UK pressing:
Matrix / Runout (Run-out side A, stamped): ILPS 9228 A - 1 U
Matrix / Runout (Run-out side B, stamped): ILPS 9228 B - 1 U
this is the UK pressing with the track "Sunrise" as A1 and correct cover credits (as described above).

2nd UK pressing:
Matrix / Runout (Run-out side A, stamped): ILPS 9228 A - 2 U
Matrix / Runout (Run-out side B, stamped): ILPS 9228 B - 2 U
this is the pressing with "Scoop" as A1 & "Awa Odori" as A2, with "Mountain Pass" placed at the end of the album as B3 (but the cover and titles are the same of the 1st pressing, no corrections); here's the alternate sequence:
A1 Scoop
A2 Awa Odori
A3 What A Way To Live In Modern Times
A4 My Little Friend
B1 Mandala
B2 Memory Of Hiroshima
B3 Mountain Pass 

Last but not least there are 2 different booklets in circulation, both very rare.

A1. Sunrise 2:50
A2. My Little Friend 4:00
A3. What A Way To Live In Modern Times 10:00
A4. Mountain Pass 3:35
B1. Mandala 11:35
B2. Memory Of Hiroshima 8:40
