Notes

  • "Games Mother Never Taught You", "Tie Me Down", and "Your Turn to Cry" were recorded in 1989 as demos for "Back for Another Taste", however they were not included on the album. All three songs feature former Lead Guitarist, Paul Hackman on guitar and backing vocals.
  • All songs were written from 1981 to 1989 and include compositions by Paul Hackman.
  • The song "Cheers" was extracted from an old beat-up master tape.
