Unused tracks
Buffett recorded two demos of songs entitled "Columbus” and “Asking Us to Dance”, with Columbus being based on the explorer Christopher Columbus, but did not make the album cut. The demo is available for download on most Buffett fan sites and FTP collection sites. Buffett later went on to remake a cover of "Columbus" for his 2023 album, Equal Strain on All Parts. “Asking Us to Dance” is a song originally a song by Hugh Prestwood, who also wrote "Savannah Fare You Well", another track on the album.
