		Includes a cover version of Quatermass track Laughing Tackle. Thanks to Dominik Engel of Germany for bringing this record and others to our attention! We asked Ann Odell why she chose to perform Laughing Tackle. Her reply is placed here with her permission. "I wanted to do 'Laughing Tackle' because the composer and founder member of Quatermass, Pete Robinson, is a friend. We met as students at the Royal Academy of Music in London. Regards, Ann"
