    Notes:
      The "elemental" suite opens with this composite of threee short pieces, one of Brian's health songs "I'm In Great Shape", an extract of the 50s standard "I Wanna Be Around", and the power-tools and drills of "Workshop", supposedly reconstructing the "broken heart" of "I Wanna Be Around."
