The album was released on March 12, 1967, peaking at #171 on  Billboard Magazine's Top 200 charts. The promising commercial debut of the album was dampened somewhat by legal complications: the album’s back cover featured a photo of the group playing live with another image projected behind them; the projected image was a still from a Warhol motion picture, "Chelsea Girls".
The film’s cinematographer, Eric Emerson, had been arrested for drug possession and, desperate for money, claimed the still had been included on the album without his permission (in the image his face appears quite big, but upside down).
MGM Records pulled all copies of the album until the legal problems were settled
(by which time the record had lost its modest commercial momentum)
and the still was airbrushed out.


THE BANANA ON THE FRONT COVER  HAS LOST ITS STEM OTHER THAN THAT IT IS COMPLETELY ATTACHED. 
THERE IS NOT A SINGLE SEAM SPLIT OR TEAR ON THE JACKET. THREE OF THE CORNERS HAVE VERY SMALL WEAR
LESS THAN 1/8TH OF AN INCH ON 2 AND ABOUT 1/2 INCH ON THE OTHER.
ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE FRONT OF THE JACKET THERE IS A SMALL LIGHT BLUE STAIN ON THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER.
THE INSIDE IS IN VERY NICE SHAPE, STILL VERY WHITE.
THE SPINE IS VERY NICE SHAPE INSIDE AND OUT WITH ALL SPINE PRINT.
LABELS ARE BRIGHT AND CLEAN ON THE RECORD AS WELL AS BOTH PLAYING SURFACES
