“アヤのバラード” occupies position 14, listed track number 14 in the 16-track CRCP-20524 edition of Haruomi Hosono’s “TROPICAL DANDY”. This Blu-spec CD2 release is dated 2015-07-08; the album’s original year is 1975. The title and position together identify a particular place in this edition’s program.
In this sequence, it follows “薔薇と野獣” (13) and precedes ““宵待草”のテーマPart1〜漂流記” (15). The source explicitly classifies this position as a bonus track, so its presence here should not be used to reconstruct the original album’s running order. Official bonus-track provenance: from キャラメルママ〈1975〉.
