Footnotes[edit]

  1. ^ The album incorrectly lists the credit for What a Fool Believes as (Lester Abrams/Rev. Patrick Henderson/Kenny Loggins/Michael McDonald). Although Abrams and Henderson have had associations with McDonald, and have co-written other songs with him, "What a Fool Believes" was written by Loggins and McDonald. See Abrams and Henderson for more information.
  2. ^ The album incorrectly lists this track as "Originally recorded by Elvis Costello". Although Costello covered this track, it was originally recorded by Brinsley Schwarz.
