Tracks 2 and 3 "A Man Is In Love" and "Kaliope House" are separate tracks both on the disc and in the tracklisting (in other releases these are the same track on the disc).
Track 18 "The Kings Of Kerry" isn't mentioned anywhere on the release.

On the disc, track 11 is listed as "2nd version". This detail isn't mentioned anywhere else.
