Notes:
(i) The Passport CD re-issue was done without Ant's involvement from an inferior tape source, which had been partially demagnetised in places. This accounts for the 'fluttering' sound heard in places on this CD.
(ii) The Virgin CD release was re-mastered by Simon Heyworth and Ant from a Trident Studios production master. This was the only available master tape source for the album at the time the Virgin release was being put together.
