 In 1989, the Flamin' Groovies were recording for the Australian label AIM Records, when Jordan, pursuant to a 1987 conversation with Dave Edmunds during a Groovies tour, decided to allow AIM to release his copy, with some overdubs, of the 1972 Rockfield sessions as an EP, which was simply titled "The Rockfield Sessions".According to the liner notes, one of Jordan's motives was trying to spur Edmunds to make an official release of the original UA masters.The official release of the seven master recordings on EMI followed on CD in 1995, including the "correct speed" original version of "Shake Some Action" as an extra track, moving the CD closer to album length instead of EP length.
