Song information

edit

"Closing Down the Park" is a song about the Tompkins Square Park Riot. No studio recording of it has ever been released outside of a demo.

A studio version of "Regarding Steven" is included on the CD single for "Run-Around."

The performance of "Alone" contains a previously-unreleased bridge section which later became part of the song "Traveler Suite" from Decisions of the Sky.

The "Go / Low / Go / Run" medley includes snippets from the following non-Blues Traveler songs: "Linus and Lucy," "Tequila," "Loser," "Inchworm," and "La Bamba."

"Sweet Talking Hippie" and "Imagine" are included on the same track, but both are standalone performances without a segue from one to the other.

"Sweet Talking Hippie" includes a snippet from the "Galop Infernal," composed by Jacques Offenbach for the operetta Orpheus in the Underworld.
