Notes on bonus material: Track 11: Recorded at Wessex Studios - 24th January 1970. This Mike Pinder composition was recorded during the first session for the album that became A Question Of Balance. Essentially performed live in the studio with only a vocal over-dub, the song remained unfinished and was consigned to the vaults until its discovery in the summer of 2003.
Track 12: Recorded at Wessex Studios - 24th January 1970. This classic Justin Hayward composition was written and committed to tape within twenty four hours on 24th January 1970. On the 30th January the song received the mix that would feature on the single version released on April 24th 1970.
Tracks 13 to 16: Mixed at Wessex Studios - 29th June 1970. This quartet of original mixes were undertaken by Tony Clarke and Bill Price prior to being cross-faded and compiled as the final album master. They are all extended versions that feature previously unheard introductions or endings.
