Notes

2000s reissue. Each vinyl is housed in a picture sleeve

This was re issued in 2006 at the same time as The Experience LP. They were both re-issued at the same time. Distributed by Vital Distribution who then went on to be taken over Sony Distribution

Track durations of C3 and D1 are different to the CD version, because the last 2 minutes of "Narayan" on the CD are the first 2 minutes of "Firestarter" on the LP version. The audio content is exactly the same.
