Cassette repeats the program on both sides. The 'Original remix', by Steve Osbourne and Paul Oakenfold of Perfecto, features vocal samples by the Reverend Billy Graham which were not passed for full release. This resulted in the promo 12" 'HUM 1' being re-pressed with a different A-side mix. The offending track was however eventually released (slightly edited at the start) as "Bad Natured" on a 2004 Japanese reissue of LP49. The VERY original version of this track, produced and mixed by AMS using the same Billy Graham samples, also exists but has never been released in any physical form. All other versions of the track were re-vocaled by Gary himself. Another version of this track also formed the theme to the third series of 'Snub TV'.
