Additional information

• Susannah Melvoin provides vocals on the track "Rollercoaster".
• Although the track "Golden Dawn" is listed as being 9:38 long on the cover it is actually only approximately 7:21 in length. After the music finishes there is one minute of silence followed by a hidden track at 8:21. This consists of a jocular message left on a telephone answering machine.
