Notes

This album has been released as Six Songs (1986, vinyl), Eight Songs (1990, vinyl), 10 Songs (1990, CD) and 26 Songs (2003, CD). The songs are taken from two sessions in 1986.

Tracks 1-10 are taken form the 1990 eight/ten song, LP/CD version rerelease of this album. Tracks 11-16 are taken form the the original six song vinyl release. Tracks 17-19 were taken form the 1986 Outakes From 1st 7" 7"-vinyl single. "Ever Since My Accident" is available on the Kill Rock Stars compilation in superior quality.

The tracklisting on the booklet of the CD lists 26 tracks but for unknown reasons the CD only has 25 tracks as "Ever Since My Accident" and "Hugh" are together on track 25 and not individual tracks as credited.
