The compilation includes all eight singles of their first two albums, as well as the 1991 non-album Elton John cover of "Daniel" which, although not released as a single, peaked at number seven in the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.[1] Most of the songs are included with the Radio edit versions, which hadn't been included yet on a Wilson Phillips album.

The compilation also includes solo material from the trio after they broke up, Chynna Phillips' single "Naked and Sacred", from her 1995 debut album of the same name, and two songs from the 1997 album The Wilsons, featuring Carnie and Wendy. The album is completed with some rare B-side only live songs, as well as a 1991 interview with the group which was included as the b-side of their single "You're in Love".
