Liner Notes Graham would like to thank Harvey Lisberg, Adrian Lee, Andrew Gold, Rafe McKenna, Philip Lisberg, Mandy Cohen, Leo Fender, Orville Gibson, Adolph Rickenbacker, Christian Martin, all our new friends at AVEX and last but not least Gill. Eric would like to thank, Harvey the Croupier, Phillip the Cool, Mandy the Voice, Gloria for the wise thoughts, Jody for the (F)Arty Faxes, Dieta for young thought, Bob Thomas (TEAC UK) for fixing things by telephone!, Don Larking for keeping his word, Adrian for polishing Eric's Proverbials!, Tom, Rod, Helen, Phil, and all at AVEX for input, output and... put-put and remember Mike: "We're not alone!"
Notes Tracks 11-15 are not on the US release; Track 01 is not on the NL or DE releases; all 15 tracks listed above appear on the JP release; JP, NL and DE releases have different track orders than above; There are no tracks on this CD which feature Graham and Eric playing together, except the remix version of "I'm Not In Love". It appears that all of Graham's recording took place at Living Code Studios in London, while all of Eric's sessions took place at Templar Studios in France. No sign of Paul Burgess or Stuart Tosh, but Rick Fenn and Andrew Gold make appearances from the old days. Plus, Steve Pigott and Gary Wallis return from their live tour with 10cc in 1993 and appearance on Alive. Also interesting is Mr. McCartney's appearance - you'll remember that Eric played on a few of his albums and the former mop-top contributed to Godley & Creme's Freeze Frame LP.
