About The Record:

Heads & Tales is the first studio album by the American singer/songwriter Harry Chapin. The album contains Chapin's early signature song Taxi. Early LP pressings of Heads & Tales featured a die-cut front cover with a square hole in it, allowing the "cover" photo of Chapin (which is actually on an enclosed poster/lyric sheet) to be seen through the hole, creating a three-dimensional effect. Despite its length of nearly seven minutes, which made the song unwieldy for AM radio airplay, Taxi was released uncut as a 45 RPM single, and charted at No. 24 on the Billboard Hot 100.
