Neither track on the release was issued on Anthem, though the popularity of "Sphinx" meant it found its way onto the 1984 compilation Toyah! Toyah! Toyah!. "For You" was eventually included on the 1999 reissue of Anthem. "Sphinx" was included on the 2002 release of Sheep Farming In Barnet/The Blue Meaning as a bonus track as well as on the compilation album Proud, Loud & Heard - The Best Of Toyah.
