 The master tape of this recording probably got lost since a digitized vinyl recording was used for the CD.The instrumental "The Dignity of Labour" tracks had been released as an EP in 1979 with "Flexi Disc" (a tongue-in-cheek in-studio meta-conversation between the members of the band and their manager, Bob Last, about their plans to include a flexidisc with their EP and what to put on it).The last two tracks were the A- and B-sides of the band's first single, "Being Boiled", released before they signed to Virgin.
