Notes:
1. This was the last 10cc album, collaboratively produced in the UK and France. Hence,
the title. (Graham) "Gouldman admitted the album was 'almost like two halves of an
album', largely a result of the fact that he and Stewart began recording in separate countries."
2. This is the first of two songs on that album in which Paul McCartney participated.
