He sustained a cult following as a "highly significant" and "incalculable" influence on an array of new wave, punk, and experimental rock artists. **Three artworks by Don Van Vliet(a.k.a.-Captain Beefheart) were used for the sleeve design. "Green Tom" painting on the cover (1976), an untitled color sketch on a bread bag (1976) on back cover, and a line illustration on the back of the inner sleeve (1976).
