Notes

Adapted from the album's liner notes,[5] except where noted.

  • "Ascending" – Three recordings exists of this song. This is the most recent version from 1998, featuring Thighpaulsandra's string and flutes arrangement.
  • "Conspiracist Blues" – Recorded live at The Lemon Tree in Aberdeen during Cope's first Highlands & Islands Tour of Scotland, according to the album's liner notes, but is in fact a studio recording.
  • "Propheteering" – 7" single released in 1997 as a limited edition.
  • "Mighty Carl Jung" – Recorded soon after Island dropped Cope in November 1992. It was forgotten until 1997, when Cope overdubbed a Mellotron at Thighpaulsandra's studio.
  • "Highway Blues" – Released in 1995 on The Big Issue South LP. Recorded soon after Island dropped Cope in November 1992.
  • "Sqwubbsy Versus King Plank" – "A particularly arch protometal version of this weird glam song," according to the album's liner notes.
  • "You Can't Hurt Me Anymore" – Written for the E. Man Groovin' session with Hugoth and Tom Nicolson, Tim Bran and Gorby Butterworth. This is a later version recorded in Liverpool. The Mellotron was overdubbed during Thigpaulsandra's 1997 remix.
  • "Oh Yeah, but Never Like This Before" – Recorded by Cope with the band The Sons Of T.C. Lethbridge.
  • "The One I Call My Own" – One of three recorded versions and originally attempted as a potential single, then dropped as being too long. The Mellotron was added during Thigpaulsandra's 1997 remix
  • "Jellypop Perky Jean" – This new version was recorded in 1993, as several A&R men viewed it as a potential single.
  • "Tighten-Up" – Recorded in two hours for a live mime on Japanese television. The audience was dubbed on later by the TV company.
  • "Zabriskie Point" – A live recording. The studio version was lost when Cope moved to the West Country in 1992.[6]
  • "I Need Someone" and "Prince Varmint" – When I.R.S. Records showed interest in Cope, c. 1985,[7] his manager paid for these two songs to be recorded along with several others, some of which are now lost.
  • "Competition" – 7" single released in 1985 by Cope under the name Rabbi Joseph Gordan and limited to 2000 copies. Produced by Steve Lovell, credited as Bernard Gazda.
  • "Satisfaction" – Recorded in June 1978 at Will Sergeant's home studio. It was the result of a collaboration between Sergeant and Paul Simpson's band Industrial Domestic and Cope.
