All versions of TB feature 'movements', like a classical suite (I assume Mike intended TB to be a modern equivalent of that). What follows is a comparison between the four main versions of TB as far as 'movements' are concerned. For TB 1973, I use the titles from the Amarok Player tracklist as, obviously, TB 1973 is the only version which doesn't feature titles.

PART ONE

Movement one
TB 1973:The Guardian
TBII: Sentinel
TBIII: The source of secrets
TB 2003: Introduction

Movement two
TB 1973: Illumination
TBII: Dark star
TBIII: Not present
TB 2003: Fast guitars + Basses

Movement three
TB 1973: Star light
TBII: Clear light
TBIII: Jewel in the crown (maybe)
TB 2003: Latin + A minor tune

Movement four
TB 1973: Indigo inn
TBII: Blue saloon
TBIII: Not present (but it is in Amarok)
TB 2003: Blues

Movement five
TB 1973: Solar flare
TBII: Sunjammer
TBIII: Outcast
TB 2003: Thrash + Jazz

Movement six
TB 1973: Eventide
TBII: Red dawn
TBIII: The inner child
TB 2003: Ghost bells + Russian

Movement seven
TB 1973: The bell
TBII: The bell :)
TBIII: Far above the clouds
TB 2003: Finale

PART TWO

Movement one
TB 1973: In stasis + Pastoral
TBII: Weightless
TBIII: Not really present, but maybe The watchful eye
TB 2003: Harmonics

Movement two
TB 1973: The vast field
TBII: The great plain
TBIII: Not present
TB 2003: Peace (also including movement three)

Movement three
TB 1973: Moongate
TBII: Sunset door
TBIII: Moonwatch (maybe)
TB 2003: Peace (see above)

Movement four
TB 1973: Martial
TBII: Tattoo
TBIII: Not present
TB 2003: Bagpipe guitars

Movement five
TB 1973: Piltdown man
TBII: Altered state
TBIII: Not present
TB 2003: Caveman

Movement six
TB 1973: Southern silver
TBII: Maya gold
TBIII: Yet again not present
TB 2003: Ambient guitars

Movement seven
TB 1973: The sailor's hornpipe
TBII: Moonshine
TBIII: Not present (but present on Amarok)
TB 2003: The sailor's hornpipe :)

TBIII really stands apart from the trilogy, IMHO, because at least seven over fourteen movements do not seem to be present in it; moreover two tracks from TBIII («Top of the morning» and «Main in the rain») do not have any correspondence in any other version of TB. At least, I didn't find any. ;)

From where did you get the names of the TB'73 tracks?

From the Amarok Player tracklist for TB 1973. If you don't know what I'm talkin' about, go to the inventor's webpage and download the player (and its tracklists). It works with all of Mike's CDs and also some other ones. :)
