MISC NOTES:

In the early 1970s Herfy's was a popular, inexpensive fast food hamburger take-out restaurant chain based in the Seattle area. Their top - of - the line menu offering was the Hefty Burger.  As of 2021 a few Herfy's  outlets still exist in the Puget Sound region.

Although no disc has been found,  there may have been a B - B
"Scream (It's Eating Me Alive) " -  Mono/Stereo - pressing of this disc on the Sea-West label (SWRC 7745).

DISC NOTES:

Unclear if  "Scream" mono / "Scream" stereo tracks, alone,  were issued  on both Grand Theft and Sea-West labels.  Another uncertainty is  whether there are both 7" and 12" discs featuring only the mono/stereo tracks.
