The forty-seven track compilation contains the A- and B-sides of all singles issued by the band in the U.S. and the U.K. between the years 1976 and 1982 in chronological order, five demo recordings made before the release of their debut album including an alternative version of "Heart of Glass", as well as two 1994 dance remixes of their hits "Atomic" and "Rapture".
The liner notes contain extensive interviews with (at the time) former band members Clem Burke, Jimmy Destri, Nigel Harrison, Frank Infante and Gary Valentine .
