CD1 contains the 1978 LPs 'Another Music In A Different Kitchen' and 'Love Bites'.
CD2 contains the 1979 LP 'A Different Kind of Tension' as well as those singles from the 1979 compilation LP 'Singles Going Steady' that don't already appear on the above LPs.
CD3 is a compendium that includes: recordings from a live concert from 10 Mar 1978 at The Lyceum, London (3-1 to 3-8), the 1981 EP 'Parts 1,2,3' (3-9 to 3-14) and a track from a 1981 NME cassette (3-15).

Nearly identical to Product but that has Made In UK printed on the CDs and matrices without 'NL' indicating that the discs were both mastered and pressed at EMI Swindon.
