No-One Driving and Touch and Go along with some early John Foxx experiments with drums machines and analogue synthesizers.

Disc Two : The interview includes extracts from a demo of
Like a Miracle and an extended version of Plaza alongside some tracks retrieved from two 1980 tapes marked Music For Film and Instrumentals. It also features a thirty second piece entitled Jane.
