Notes:
The following anecdote about the song "My Typewriter" is given by John Bobin, Bass Guitar player in Legend and on this and next record.
"My Typewriter had an usual spoken intro which came about when Mickey was aping Bobby Boris Pickett and his song The Monster Mash.
We suggested that he should keep the intro like that and it seemed to work! Of course the real inspiration was Boris Karloff".
