The track "Apollo's Frock" was partially conceived in 1996 during a live performance of "Doughnut Song" from the Boys for Pele era.[2] "Bug a Martini" is a bossa nova–influenced piece featuring prominent use of a Wurlitzer electric piano.[1]

"Mountain", a song featured on "Scarlet's Web", was not released as part of this collection, and remained unreleased outside of that project until 2023, when Amos released a remaster of Scarlet's Hidden Treasures digitally. Also appearing on the 2023 remaster is "Operation Peter Pan", originally released as the B-side to "A Sorta Fairytale".
