Miscellanea

*On the initial pressing of "Rides Again", a 90-second electric rendition of "Boléro" is interpolated into the song "The Bomber". However, Ravel's estate (which still owns copyright on the work) objected, and as a result the track was edited and that section was removed from the song on subsequent pressings of the album. Recently the re-mastered CD re-issue of Rides Again contains the full version of The Bomber, with the Boléro section restored.

*The final track, "Ashes, The Rain And I" was sampled by Fatboy Slim in the 1999 single "Right Here Right Now".
