The label website does not mention the jingles. What kind of stuff is that? I have never heard of them before.

Each of the five Jingles is listed on the webpage linked to from my earlier post. These tracks have been available, in various combinations, across the various versions of From Brussels With Love which have been released over the years - this is the first time they've all been collected together on a compact disc. Jingles #1, #2 and #3 appear on Disc One, while Jingles #4 & #5 appear on Disc Two.

As their name suggests, they're all short pieces - in the same 'style' as some of the more esoteric material included on the third disc of the recently released Metamatic box set...
