Notes

On track 1-14, Jeanette Lee is credited with "Keyboards and Synths", and Dave Crowe with "Drums". However, it is known that these 2 performed non-musical roles in P.I.L. so these credits are likely an assumption made by the compilers, perhaps due to both artists appearing as 'band members' in the liner notes of Metal Box. The actual performers of these roles are likely to be Martin Atkins on drums, and Keith Levene on keyboards and synthesizers.

Also, in the same track Levene is credited with "Guitar" here, when no guitar is in Careering, though he certainly performed on the track itself.
