The track list starts with the original line‑up of band members and transitions through later incarnations, each assembly of members performing the songs that group originally recorded in the studio. It was recorded at a time when the band were in a chaotic state, without a record contract, after being dropped by their only major label, MCA. Various line-ups based on this show would tour until the Damned released the "Fun Factory" single.[4]
