The album was compiled without any input from the band,[3] and the poorly researched liner notes by Mick Wall (on the 1993 re-issue) contain numerous errors about the history of the band's various line-ups, as well as several errors about the origins of the tracks on this compilation. The correct information is listed above.

gollark: The Internet is kind of terrible because of historical inertia (we're still on IPv4 everywhere for some reason? NAT everywhere, overzealous middleboxes, etc are very wasteful), but it generally works.
gollark: Yes, arbitrarily smart people can just derive all information via Solomonoff induction (good).
