The compilation was assembled after lead singer Jimmy Somerville's departure from the band, combining tracks from what would have been the next single ("Run From Love"/"Hard Rain") with new remixes of four tracks from The Age of Consent. It was the last Bronski Beat album to feature Somerville's vocals.

The cassette and CD editions added three B-sides and an existing 12" single remix of "I Feel Love". (The remaining B-sides "Red Dance", "The Potato Fields", "Puit d'Amour" and "Signs & Wonders" were not included until the 2012 re-release which paired the album with The Age of Consent)

gollark: It's less complex for everyone interacting with it, since they can just... use SQLite, which has bindings for everything, instead of "zimlib". And by "efficiency" do you mean "space efficiency" or "lookup efficiency"? Because, as I said, SQLite would probably only add a few bytes per directory entry row, which is not a significant increase.
gollark: SQLite's overhead is pretty low, and the majority of the filesize is from the binary blobs which would remain the same in each.
gollark: It's less complex for them as the code is already there and written with a nice API, and "less efficient" how? Slightly more space on headers?
gollark: You could easily store the directory entry bits as an SQLite table.
gollark: This is an excellent use case for SQLite, which would allow quick lookups in the metadata bit and not require coming up with a fiddly custom binary format.
