Notes

The cover of this album is based on Trevor Key's original cover design for Tubular Bells when it was under the working title of Breakfast In Bed. It was modified by the graphic design company Icon. The doves may have been included as a reference to the dove on the sleeve of Mike's first single, as Heaven's Open was to be his last Virgin album.
