Differs from Life On Mars, which has green 'holes' in the Philadelphia International Records logo, in addition to unique runout etchings. When I finally had the chance to ask Dexter Wansel about the ideas behind his magnificent album, he said joyfully: "Well Alain, very early on I was into synthesis. And I really didn't understand sinewaves, oscillators, envelope generators, etc. I also didn't understand the the Solar System, or the Universe - (and still don't), but trying to merge the two paths of thinking was very exciting to me. Like on "Rings Of Saturn".

Science fiction was big in the 1970s. So from a marketing standpoint, it made sense when, in 1976, Dexter Wansel went for a sci-fi theme on his debut album, Life on Mars. Not that the Philadelphia needed a gimmick to get over - if you're good enough to work with heavyweights like the O'Jays, the Stylistics, and the Intruders, you don't need a gimmick. Even without the sci-fi theme, Life on Mars would have been a memorable debut for Wansel, who produced the album and wrote or co-wrote all of the material.
