Notes

28 track - 84 minute long double album consisting of every known recording by Hammersmith Gorillas aka Gorillas not on their sole LP "Message To The World". Includes all 6 of their singles, 7 studio outtakes previously unreleased on vinyl, 1 aborted single, plus side D consists of 6 previously unreleased live tracks recorded at The Nashville Room, London on 06.01.77, 3 of which were never attempted in a proper studio. Liner notes/insert includes new interviews with Jesse Hector and Gary Anderson by Phil King, plus several unpublished photos. Recordings are in stereo except side D which in in mono.

No copies were ever shrink-wrapped due to pressing plant error. Jacket and records were enclosed in a plastic sleeve instead.

Group is listed as "Hammersmith Gorillas", not their later shortened name "Gorillas".
