Earth Calling    (Temple of Bon Matin)
Ejection         (New Bomb Turks)
Hassan I Sahba   (Tibetan Bowlers)
The Demented Man (Catharsis)
Lord Of Light    (Green Machine)
Magnu            (Lithium X-Mas)
Motorhead        (The Humpers)
Forge of Vulcan  (Sabalon Glitz)
Sonic Attack     (The Mike Gunn)

is on the vinyl. I miss Tibetan Bowlers "Sonic Attack" version of Hassan.
running order has gone through a huge rearrangement.

I guess the ltd edition of 300 vinyl copies is sold out now.

Doug's project was running parallell with the BOC-l project, and those
tracks he contributed to the BOC-l tapes was the outtakes from his own
project. Only overlap was the three tracks that was previous released -
ST37, F/i and Lithium X-mas. (only recalled from memory)
