NOTES

'Telegraph' had originally been recorded back in 1981 at The Manor studios and had been under consideration for the Architecture And Morality album.

The original inspiration for the song was culled from Andy McCluskey's strong feelings against politics and religion at the time. This theme had been watered down by the time it had been recorded for Dazzle Ships.

'Telegraph' was originally scheduled to be the first single from the album Dazzle Ships, but the band weren't happy with the mix and, with pressure from Virgin, opted for 'Genetic Engineering' instead.

'66 And Fading' is actually the chords to 'Silent Running' reversed and slowed down.

TRIVIA

The lyrics on the original 1981 version and the 1983 version are different in places, reflecting the harder edge the orginial version presented.

The morse code that can just be heard in the background of the title song spells out 'Telegraph'.

The timing for '66 And Fading' is 6:40 on this release but 6:30 on the 12" release.
