Of the 25 tracks, 13 are instrumental, including the title track.

This was the first double-LP released on 4AD, and introduced the "DAD" (for double album) prefix into the label's catalog . Watts-Russell took careful consideration in shaping the album's four sides so they flowed together as individual wholes. This is lost somewhat on compact disc, as the entire album fits on one CD.
