[2] De Paul personally oversaw the project and was involved in the digital remastering of the tracks from the original tapes.

Sugar and Beyond also contains two unreleased songs performed by de Paul from 1972 and orchestrated by Nick Drake collaborator, Robert Kirby - "House of Cards" (a song covered by many artists) and "Taking It On", a song co-written with Ron Roker and previously released by Sacha Distel and Petula Clark,[4] as well as dance troupe The Young Generation on their 1973 album, Give Me Love.

[5] The second CD includes the one off international hit single on the Warner Bros label "Ooh I Do" and its B-side "Nothing Really Lasts Forever", and subsequent releases on the Jet Records/Polydor Records label such as the UK top 40 hit "My Man and Me" plus de Paul's version of "Dancin' (on a Saturday Night)" (the B-side to that single) and it concludes with de Paul's second biggest hit single "No, Honestly" and the B-side of this single "Central Park Arrest", which was a UK hit for Thunderthighs.

The remaining tracks come from de Paul's second vinyl album Taste Me... Don't Waste Me.

[6] The album came with a booklet with photographs and memorabilia from de Paul's personal archive, as well her as anecdotes about the songs and her career.
