Trivia

*"Journey of the Sorcerer" was used as the theme song for Douglas Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy radio series produced by the BBC in 1978 and 1979 (and its sequel series, produced by Above the Title Productions for the BBC in 2003 and 2004), for the television miniseries in 1981, and for the film produced by Disney/Touchstone in 2005. While the original version from One of These Nights was used for the original transmissions of all five radio series, various "soundalike covers" were used for other formats. The LP and TV adaptations of the series used an arrangement by Tim Souster, the CD releases of the radio series transmitted in 2004 and 2005 used one by Philip Pope, and the 2005 film used one by Joby Talbot.
*Original pressings of this record had text engraved into the carry-out grooves on each side.Side One: Dont Worry---Side Two: ---Nothing Will Be OK!
