Tracks 1 to 13 were originally released as the Gravity LP in 1980.

Tracks 14 to 19: 'As a coda, I've included some material which relates to "Gravity" in various ways. This music isn't really intended to be heard directly after the rest; it's more like a third "side" that you can choose to play sometimes.'
Credits for these tracks were added on this repress.
