[edit] Questions for anyone who knows

  • Was Agharta's earliest release on Columbia, and in 1976? An entry on Discogs claims that CBS Benelux released it in the Netherlands in 1975, but my 1991 CD version gives a copyright date of 1976. It also says "originally released as PG 33967", but I couldn't find anything about that catalog number.
  • How should the cronology work? I put Water Babies under Next album, because it was released in 1976. But it was actually recorded much earlier, around 1968 IIRC. Thoughts?

[edit] Track listing issue

I've removed the following from the "Track listing" section:

The listing on Disc Two is incorrectly listed on both the CD and album details. It should read:

  1. "Theme from Jack Johnson" – 25:16
  2. "Interlude" – 26:50

This is only partially correct. The track timings, as given on the LP/CD, are correct (though some editions simply have one long track on the second CD). The song titles do seem to be reversed on the LP/CD, given that the first track starts with a portion of "Right Off" from the Tribute to Jack Johnson album. But even if the names were reversed, they would still be somewhat meaningless: the two tracks actually encompass (at least) four different songs. Paul Tingen's book Miles Beyond goes into some detail, but for now I've just removed the additional text and left the track listing the way the record company gave it. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 21:36, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
