* ReCut:
** While UK 8-track releases preserve the LP running order, a rarity for the format, "One for the Vine", "Wot Gorilla?", and "Blood on the Rooftops" are all split into two parts due to them overlapping with the changeovers between programs.
** North American 8-track releases reorder the tracklist to conform to the four-program format. On these releases, the new running order is "Eleventh Earl of Mar", "One for the Vine", "Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers...", "...In That Quiet Earth", "Afterglow", "Blood on the Rooftops", "Wot Gorilla?", "Your Own Special Way", and "All in a Mouse's Night". Additionally, "One for the Vine" is split into two parts due to it overlapping with the changeovers between programs 1 and 2.

** "All in a Mouse's Night" was inspired by WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry.''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry''. The end of the song, in which the cat is defeated by a ten-foot-tall mouse, similarly stems from the ''Tom and Jerry'' shorts "Jerry and Jumbo" and "Is There a Doctor in the Mouse?"

-->Out on the road in the direction of Perth,\\
