Wakeman had been asked to write a song specifically for a huge firework display in Newcastle upon Tyne which he was to perform live. He wrote the song "Light Up the Sky" but because of poor ticket sales the event was cancelled.[2] He then released this EP with three additional new songs.

"Light Up the Sky" and "The Bear" were later included on the 1999 compilation The Masters.[citation needed]
