I can remember some of the tracks on the first tape but the rest are lost. That first tape naturally included Queen's Princes of the Universe - Highlander being THE movie for us in those days. Paul added that one, as well as a track by Mondo Rock called Primitive Love Rites which we loved because it seemed perfect for our simian mascot.
