It was also in part an inspiration for the 2001 novel of the same name by Jonathan Coe. Track listing Notes: The first two are abridged versions of those on the original release of The Rotters' Club. "Halfway Between Heaven and Earth" was first released on "Over the Rainbow" – a various artists live album. This version is slightly shorter, the introduction is cross-faded with the preceding track.
