This compilation album was released after the Indie group James separated in December 2001. It contains an unusual mix of hit singles, key album tracks, B-sides and some rarer tracks, making the release useful for collectors; So Long Marianne and Confusion appear here for the first time on any James release, Once a Friend for the first time on CD, Lazy for the first time on UK release and Coffee and Toast for the first time as anything other than a download. The album was produced to provide a retrospective look at James' career, however it was released with a non-existent marketing campaign and without any input from band members generating little critical interest.
