01. Telephone > Think
Written by Lowman Pauling (The 5 Royales), originally on "Both Sides Of People" (album #2 in the discography). Prior to this song you can hear an answering machine, with a message from some unknown person. There was a telephone number with this message, Lary Norman found out about it and recorded it eventually.

Previously unreleased People track.

03. Spirits
Previously unissued version of "Baroquen Spirits" with Denny Fridkin singing (People).

05. Blow In My Ear
Titled "Laugh-In" in the booklet, this is "Blow In My Ear And I'll Follow You Anywhere" from Capitol 2429, released as by the Flies.

06. Clean Lennon
This song was first released on the 2CD version of "Upon This Rock" (Solid Rock SRD-969, 2002, album #3 in the discography). It was recorded in 1969 and is reminiscent to "I Don't Wanna Lose You" (from the first version of "Street level", 1970, album #4 in the discography).

07. Now Is The Time
Previously unreleased People track.

08. Dancer
This is "She's A Dancer", a recording from the People days, with Larry Norman singing. The released version on "Both Sides Of People" (album #2) is sung by Gene Mason. Larry Norman's version from "So Long Ago The Garden" (album #7 in the discography) is more well-known. Larry Norman's original solo version appeared on the first version of "Street Level" (album #4).

09. Rita Rita > Sigrid
This title starts with 'Rita Rita Rita Baby, Rita Rita bring it on home, yeah, Rita Rita Rita Baby, Rita Rita don't you leave me all alone' to continue with a previously unknown version of "Sigrid Jane", which was first issued on the first version of "Street Level" (album #4). This could be the same version as on the Beechwood-Capitol acetate (see also "Street Level" in the discography).

Part of "The Epic". The full version was released on side B of People's "I Love You" (album #1).

13. Idonwanna Lose U
The u-card sais "Idowanna Lose U", but should read "Idonwanna Lose U". This is a previously unreleased version of "I Don't Wanna Lose You", a little slower than the released version on "Street Level" (first version, 1970, album #4). This could be the same version as on the Beechwood-Capitol acetate (see also "Street Level" in the discography).

16. All My Dreams
This is "When All My Dreams Are Ending" and it could be the same as the Harmony Recorders (Beechwood) acetate, listed under "Upon This Rock" in the discography (album #3). The version on "Father Touch" (album #46 in the discography) is from a much later date.
