An unusual compilation, not released in all regions (there was no UK release, for instance), which followed on from The Final Cut, and featured a strange combination of tracks from the earlier days of the band (Several Species… from Ummagumma was a particularly unusual choice!).
The most unexpected selection was the unfinished demo of Embryo, a track which was a live favourite in 1970, and this demo was included without the band’s approval or pleasure on a fairly obscure Harvest Records multi-artist sampler that year called Picnic: A Breath Of Fresh Air.
