Annotation

Now That I’ve Seen Her / Her or Me

Track 2.10 is a recording of Her or Me, later lyrically revised to become Now That I’ve Seen Her, despite what is printed on the rear cover track listing. The listing printed on CD 2 and the booklet (with libretto) both correctly identify the track as heard. A recording of the Now That I’ve Seen Her is found on the highlights album where it is referred to as Her or Me.
