MISC NOTES: . 60's Punk Sampler Vol. 2: Pen art picture sleeve writings erroneously indicate that Steve Weed - vocalist on the two Velvet Illusions recordings - was the former boyfriend of Patty Hearst. (1970s. Symbionese Liberation Army) . Hearst's boyfriend was a different Steve Weed. Side A, Track #s 2 & 3 on six-song EP 60's Punk E.P. Vol. 2. Although available as a stand-alone record, it appears Vol. 2 was also sold along with Vol.1 in a two disc "boxed" set.
