The Viper label have established themselves as a dedicated archive of Liverpool music from both the pre and post-Eric's Club scene. This release was a third volume in a series of compilations that featured a very eclectic mix of artists and songs.

The version of Electricity used here is the same as that recorded at the Open Eye Gallery in 1978 and which also featured on the 2002 EP release.

As well as The Id, this release featured tracks by Dalek I, Wah! Heat and The Spitfire Boys - Liverpool's best-known punk band which featured Frankie Goes To Hollywood's Paul Rutherford in the line-up.
