Tracks 10-11 on CD2 are both from the Axe session of September 1978 that also yielded the original version of SS Giro. Tracks 12-16 on CD2 are all previously unreleased songs presumably recorded between deals. Tracks 17-19 on CD2 are all rough versions by the first Fist line-up. Tracks 17-18 were later reworked for the 2nd album "Back With A Vengeance".
