Die Songs sind alle aus dem 1971er Album "Nursery Cryme", außer "Twilight Alehouse", welches die Gruppe seit 1970 live aufführte aber erst 1998 zum ersten Mal auf einem dem Album "Genesis Archive 1967 - 75" veröffentlich wurde. Gabriel war Mitbegründer von Genesis im Jahr 1967 und verließ die Band im Jahr 1975. Collins übernahm dann als Leadsänger.
