Notes
Released as a four track single for a Japanese "dub" band, Little Tempo. It includes Beautiful Rain, which features Eddi as the lead vocalist. Lyric part was made by Eddi herself.

Beautiful Rain is a very relaxing, comfortable number with Eddi's soothing vocal. Eddi well displays her mastery with the chorus part, "your beautiful, your beautiful...," where she raises the tone a little at "-ful."

Another rendition of Beauriful Rain was included in Little Tempo's album, Ron Riddim though the vocal part seems to be from the same source.

On Night Song, Linton Kwesi Johnson is featured for poetry reading.
