Trivia
On both vinyls, the inscription "sleep beneath the stars. MO!" is scratched in the run off as well as the catalogue numbers. In the inside of the CD's booklet, the lyrics to 'Stamping', a song by Jon McClure for his previous band 1984 ("Heavyweight Champion Of The World" even borrows the first verse of the song). When performed live the band frequently include alternate verses from "Stamping" and extend the ending to include the hook from Pixeltan song 'Get Up/Say What' ("You can say what you want but it doesn't mean that it's true") which McClure admits in a blog that he admires. The song 'Get Up/ Say What' was also included as the second track on a recent Mixtape compiled by McClure. The Mixtape entitled "And Whilst the World Was Asleep We Were Listening To..." opens with an alternative version of "The Last Resort" featuring only McClure's verses and a synth backing.
The song also features on the compilation 'Top Gear: Seriously Cool Driving Music'.

Famous quotes containing the word trivia:
“Pop artists deal with the lowly trivia of possessions and equipment that the present generation is lugging along with it on its safari into the future.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
“The most refined skills of color printing, the intricate techniques of wide-angle photography, provide us pictures of trivia bigger and more real than life. We forget that we see trivia and notice only that the reproduction is so good. Man fulfils his dream and by photographic magic produces a precise image of the Grand Canyon. The result is not that he adores nature or beauty the more. Instead he adores his camera—and himself.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
