Anchored by the gold-certified, million-selling singles \"Freddie's Dead\" and \"Superfly,\" the album was recorded during an intensive three-day session at RCA Studios in Chicago, except for \"Pusherman,\" captured earlier in New York City.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the Rhino High Fidelity Series\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRhino is synonymous with high-quality reissues, setting the standard with award-winning audio releases for the past 45 years.
