"The Lost Album" is the result of 1990-1994 recording sessions, involving their classic lineup of the early-to-mid 1970's, of Australian glam rock band Skyhooks.
Apart from "Jukebox in Siberia", "Tall Timber" and "Happy Hippy Hut" (these were released as singles), none of these tracks have ever been released.

Skyhooks made these latter recordings with a new album in mind, what might have been their first studio album in 14 years, but, for their own reasons, they chose not to go ahead with the album and a "possible" tour. So, Skyhooks' "The Lost Album" remained in Mushroom's vaults, until 1999, when Skyhooks released "The Collection", a two disc set in which the first disc comprised 19 "Best of" tracks, and the second disc was "The Lost Album".

All of the tracks were written by bass player Greg Macainsh.
