Notes

From Jeff Wayne's musical version of "The War of the Worlds" PC2 35290.
Original sound recording made by Ollie Records Productions.
This is a rare promotional copy of "The Eve Of The War". It has the same catalog number as the commercial edition released in 1978, but the "B" side is different: this release has the shorter version of "The Eve Of The War" instead of "Horsell Common and the Heat Ray".
