Notes

[edit]

Despite this compilation being in the greatest hits vein, it does feature a large number of songs which have not appeared in any previously recorded format (including all of the live and demo tracks).

The compilation also contains four completely new or re-worked songs which are "What Kind of Fool 2006", "The Empty Dancehall Revisited", "Keepsakes" (which has also been released as a download single) and "Raindrops".

The sleeve-notes to this compilation are a no-holds barred history of the band which detail the failures and the mistakes as well as the triumphs.

The "infamous" version of "Martha's Harbour" was a Top of the Pops performance featuring just Julianne Regan and Tim Bricheno which - as was usual BBC policy at the time - was mimed. Unfortunately the backing tape wasn't played to the performers and which meant that they couldn't hear what they were supposed to be miming to - whereas the TV audience could hear the song with the two of them just sitting there. They pick the song up to much studio audience applause mid-way through the second verse, when someone realised the mistake.

"The Empty Dancehall Revisited" and "Raindrops" feature Bricheno playing on an All About Eve album for the first time since their second album Scarlet and Other Stories seventeen years beforehand.

Marty Willson-Piper wasn't available for the Top of the Pops performance of "Farewell Mr Sorrow" so his part in the mime was taken by a roadie called Adam Birch.[citation needed]
