Receiving good reviews, the compilation was released on CD, cassette and LP formats. Artwork was designed by Anthony Sweeney with photography by Aude Prieur and James Fry. Before its release as a standalone compilation album, the disc was originally packaged in a 2CD limited edition reissue of So Tough.
All tracks have since been released on other compilations and deluxe editions of the group's studio albums rendering the compilation technically obsolete.
