Some tracks were recorded at Konk Studios during April 1994 with a small audience in an Unplugged style,[1] other tracks were recorded live in Portsmouth in March 1994, and "You Really Got Me" was recorded live in Philadelphia in August 1993.[2] All the songs had been previously released as studio recordings.
Release
Released 3 October 1994 in the U.K. on the band`s own Konk label.[1] An EP-single was released off the album to promote its release, "Waterloo Sunset `94", which in addition to a live take of "You Really Got Me" featured the unreleased demos "Elevator Man" and "On the Outside", both recorded in 1976.
In 1996, an expanded double CD-version with 29 tracks was released in the U.S. on Guardian/Konk. Two new studio tracks – "To The Bone" and "Animal" – were included on the double-disc U.S. version, while two tracks on the shorter U.K. issue – "Waterloo Sunset" and "Autumn Almanac" – were omitted. The U.S. version was released in the U.K. in 1997.[2]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine, in a review for AllMusic, felt that the songs suited the stripped back "Unplugged" style, but the album as a whole was little more than a "pleasant diversion".[1]
