"Accidentally Born In New Orleans" was released in Germany in December 1972, followed 6 months later on the Transatlantic label in the UK - 'accidentally' issued with the title "Accidentally Borne In New Orleans" in America.
The 'accidental' of the title is effectively how Snape was formed, during a USA tour of collective bands, including Humble Pie & King Crimson. Thus the band is also known as "The Accidental Band".
