Living Eyes was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales during a break in the band’s 1978 tour of Britain and Europe. Relations between members were falling apart and Sire had dropped the band prior to the start of recording. Their breakup soon followed. Initial releases of the album were cut from a tape dub of trial mixes as the band never received an official master. In 1994 the  original tapes were retrieved from Rockfield and remixed in  Australia for a CD only release. This is the first time the remix version has been released on vinyl. It has been remaster and cut to lacquer.
