Ok folks, I think I finally cracked it! It's not too tricky, this definately works for the vinyl version, and 'feels' right. The way to work out which picture goes with which track is to turn the label so the WARP logo is the right way up at the bottom. There will then be a 'pie piece' with it's radius at 12 o'clock. Going clockwise reads off all the tracks. This is consistent with track length, and fits Blue Calx. The pictures on the gatefold *aren't* randomly placed. They correspond to each side of the record. Note the colour coding! Right then here we go the first _Selected Ambient Works II_ track listing. I don't know what you'll think of the picture descriptions, it wasn't easy for some of them :) As for the CD well I don't know whether it will hold or not. We should be able from this though to work out what the extra track is. For reference purposes the first track played on the Radio 1 session (my personal favorite) is the very last track F4 'matchsticks'. Note side letter is etched on the vinyl after cat number. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- WARP LP21LTD Artist: Aphex Twin Title: Selected Ambient Works II Released: Mar 94 Formats: Limited Edition Brown Vinyl 3xLP 3xLP 2xCD Tracks: 'light green' A1 cliffs [Richard D.
