The set was recorded at the Marquee and the tapes cleaned up for release at Alaska Studios with minor drop-in overdubs.

The gig was also videotaped and appeared on VHS with a few additional numbers, interspersed with several studio recordings available through their promo videos.

The material selected for this album includes titles ranging through Hitchcock's back catalogue, from Soft Boys songs ("Kingdom Of Love", "The Face Of Death") through his first solo album ("Acid Bird", "Brenda's Iron Sledge") and up to the recently released Fegmania!

The cover features a painting by Hitchcock depicting airborne fish, jellyfish and an array of ducks and chickens.

"[4] The Midnight CD issue adds "Egyptian Cream", "The Fly", and a staple of his live sets, the Soft Boys' "Only the Stones Remain", as does the 1995 Rhino reissue.
