The album was not originally published in the United States, under the catalogue number SD 19218, belonging to the series of Atlantic Records for the U.S. original publications, was used for some local editions, as in Sweden and in Australia. In the U.S. the album was published as an LP in 1979 by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab in a collector's edition under the name "Original Master Recording" (discs made from the master original). For many years, ending in 2005, The Manhattan Transfer Live was the only album of the group that was not reissued in the U.S. on CD. Warner-Pioneer in Japan released a CD version in 1987. The cover of the standard editions of Atlantic Records was described by Janis Siegel as "the worst cover in history (perhaps only after Mecca for Moderns and Coming Out, is a drawing in a cartoon style of the four members of the group, and was reused for the re-release on CD of the Wounded Bird Records of June 21, 2005, while that of the edition Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab is a photograph depicting the silhouette of the group at twilight (photography included in the inner envelope of the Atlantic version).
