Notes about "Spanish Tune" from the HERGEST RIDGE 2010 CD booklet:
"A remixed edit of the final part on part two of Hergest Ridge
was prepared and even slated for release by Virgin as the A-side
of a single under the catalogue number VS 112, but was later shelved."
Info from http://www.mikeoldfield.org/index.php/info/biography/music-darkness/1974-view-beacon/
"It was rumoured that on July 7th, Virgin produced a promotional single titled
Spanish Tune which was backed by an excerpt from Hergest Ridge.
If it was released, there are so very few copies in existence that even Virgin themselves
cannot confirm it ever existed."

Quote about "Sally" from http://www.amadian.net/secrets.htm:
"The first 30.000 pressed copies of the vinyl included a song called Sally written by Mike Oldfield & Nico Ramsden that,
due to problems with the record company, was finally rejected and substituted with Into Wonderland,
a song based on the same music track but with a slower tempo an totally different lyrics."
As far as I know, no CDs contain the track "Sally" even though it is sometimes listen on the back cover."
