Notes:

• "Only dreaming" is a lyric from "You 'n' Me."
• Most of the songs are available on "Ancient Daze," often in the same order, though the "Ancient Daze" mixes almost always cut out a few seconds from the beginning or end.
• Few songs mix together, and there is only one unnamed track between songs. Future cassettes would go for more of an unbroken track listing.
• Judging by the dates given the few songs on "Stained Glass Soma Fountains," these songs were recorded in late 1980.
• Strangely, one song has live drums ("Frosty.")
