"Autodestruction" - 3:49 "Intensive Care" - 2:42 "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World" - 4:07 "Free at Last" - 1:23 'For Your Ears Only' "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" - 2:24 "Chocolate Milk Shake" - 4:24 "The Man with the Golden Arm" - 5:13 Accolades Reception The NME review of the albums describes it as a "Grand filmic suite intended as the soundtrack to a "provocative film thriller set in Manchester's Moss Side" and that Moss Side Story is "one of the best soundtracks ever, the fact that it has no accompanying movie is a trifling irrelevance." A retrospective review by Ritchie Unterberger of Allmusic described the album as "a sinister and edgy soundscape" that remained Adamson's best solo effort by far. The album was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
