Although the sleeve mentions a duration of 5:36 for track 1-11, it plays a 7:10 version.
Track 2-4 is erroneously titled Kirby Workers Dream Fades; corrected here in the track listing.
Track 2-8 is called Books on the back sleeve but Read It In The Books in the booklet.

Back cover of digipak erroneously lists total playing time of disc 3 (BBC Sessions) as 27:21, instead of 37:21.
