The backstory:

Heart began recording the album with Mushroom Records but didn't complete it. After Heart left for a new label, Mushroom released an unauthorized version of "Magazine" in 1977. Heart legally contested this, and by 1978, they released the official version, having remixed and re-recorded parts of the album.
