Title: Chunga's Revenge
Category: Rock
Style: Blues Rock, Jazz-Rock, Avantgarde, Parody
Year: 1970
Notes: Official Release #11

Initial gatefold covers of the UK vinyl release have an 'olive' color background for the 1st press. The back text panel is also this color. This was later replaced by a 'red' color background on vinyl & CD copies. The UK Olive sleeve spanned 1970 to 1971. The UK repress, in a Red sleeve, was in 1971; followed by a 'K' reissue and then a post 1972 'K' reissue with Warner logo on label radius for the UK. (This 'K' scenario is broadly echoed in Euro issues)

Some continuity;
The cover image of FZ yawning has become somewhat of an icon, despite coming to fruition by circumstance. It was shot at a conference center in a converted abbey in Sussex, UK, by photographer Phil Franks - who had spent the previous day at the home of 'Canterbury Scene' insider Lady June. A number of bands were at the center undergoing UK promotion by the newly-formed Kinney Group, including Dr. John, Canned Heat and FZ's line up for the Bath Concert, which included 1st appearances for The Phlorescent Leech & Eddie & Aynsley Dunbar. FZ was also toting advance cover art for Weasels Ripped My Flesh.

During a break in marketing proceedings FZ slipped into the garden for quiet contemplation, where Franks managed to snap him in 'mid-yawn' as boredom set in. Shortly after, Franks met up with Pamela Des Barres & her 'Plaster-Caster' acquaintance Cynthia Albritton for a photo-shoot on their visit to London. Franks passed copies of FZ's pics to them and, when Miss Pamela attended the Bath Festival, FZ got to see them. Thus, after a deal was struck, the 'Yawn' photo graced the cover of "Chunga's Revenge".
