There were two different versions of "Drama of Exile," released by different labels under slightly different titles. This is the second issue, released under the title "The Drama of Exile" after a legal controversy was settled with Aura Records that released the first issue. The first issue in 1981, Drama Of Exile, was a 9-track offering that included the track "Purple Lips." This second issue from 1983 excludes "Purple Lips" but adds the tracks "Saeta" and "Vegas" released on a 7" single in 1981. However, the tracks shared between the two versions of the album are identical takes.
