[8] Time to Turn was issued in the United Kingdom with alternative artwork designed by Rodney Matthews and a modified track list, as "Magic Mirrors" was replaced by a remixed version of "Illuminations", originally part of the 1980 album Colours.

[9] It is also the first Eloy album since Power and the Passion to feature drummer Fritz Randow, who returned to replace Jim McGillivray.

As Jim McGillivray was expelled from the band during the Planets sessions and Olaf Gustafson was hired to complete the percussion parts, Eloy had to find a new full-time drummer.

[10] The substitute turned out to be the returning Fritz Randow, who left the band in late 1975 after the release of Power and the Passion, when Frank Bornemann temporarily disbanded Eloy.

[11] The German music press was negative towards it, but the complete Planets/Time to Turn project was very well received in the UK, where both albums were released simultaneously in 1982.
