"[[Crabwalk]]" would later be recorded and released on ''[[Everclear]]'' later in 1991; "[[Chanel No. 5]]" was recorded at the same sessions but kept back for the b-side to the ''[[Rise]]'' and ''[[Why Won't You Stay]]'' singles; "[[What Godzilla Said To God When His Name Wasn't Found In The Book Of Life|Nothing Can Bring Me Down]]" was an early version of ''[[Mercury]]'''s "[[What Godzilla Said To God When His Name Wasn't Found In The Book Of Life]]". | |||
The liner notes from the album featured a review of the concert by Andrew Smith from the January 26, 1991 issue of ''Melody Maker''. The album was reissued in 2000 on LP by Italy's [[Fruit Tree Records]]. | |||
