The original album release credited the writing of material to Young, however the material was written by Young's regular sketch writers Knipe and John McDonnell.

Re-release

Emerald Music re-released the album in 1999 in a four-disc boxset to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Young's death. The album was boxed with three of Young's other comedy albums (It's Great to Be Young, James Young Sings Ulster Party Pieces and James Young's 4th). The album was marketed as James Young: Ireland's Greatest Comic Legend Volume 2.[2]

gollark: The trouble with this is that scaling it up like this requires ridiculous amounts of computing resources, and now it's so big that individuals probably can't even tractably run it.
