Notes
- Released as the special offer to members of Robert Harrison's Patreon in August of 2019.
- 'Songs From The Green Room' is a compilation of Robert Harrison's original mixes of the songs that would become Kontiki, done in March of 1997 (excluding "Prophecy For The Golden Age"). These mixes were transferred to a cassette and sent to Brad Jones, who went on to do the final mixing and some additional production on the finished album.
- This release is an extension of 'The Kontiki Treasure Chest', a series of downloads including (but not limited to) early mixes, recordings of songs scrapped from the finished running order, extensive videos discussing the origins of 'Kontiki' and its songs, scans of handwritten lyrics and mix notes, and the individual track stems (isolated instrument and vocal tracks) for eight of the album's songs. This CD is the only physical release to come from that project; everything else was restricted to lossless downloads for monetary reasons.
- "Monterrey Honey" was written during the sessions, but did not appear until 2001's The Big Picture. The original demo, included here as a bonus track, was released in an edited form on the CD single for 40 Watt Solution.
- A mastering error causes "Vegetable Row" to feature about 34 seconds of silence after the song's conclusion.
