These were from "Starship Trooper: Würm" (0:00-0:28 on track 7), "Roundabout" (0:30-0:50), "Heart of the Sunrise" (0:52-1:15), "Long Distance Runaround" (1:17-1:55), "Owner of a Lonely Heart" (1:58-2:21) and "Love will Find a Way" (2:24-3:00). Hilborne plays the guitar and there are some backing instuments for all but the first extract.
