Credits

Track 1-7 first five tracks are the 'Basement Tape' - a very rare tape from '77 recorded in their rehearsal room when The Adverts were still developing their unique sound, this tape was shopped around to many labels in '77 to get them a record deal while tracks 6 and 7 are rough mixes from the 'Crossing The Red Sea'.

T.V. Smith (Vocals)
Gay [sic] Advert (Bass)
Howard Pickup (Lead Guitar)
Laurie Driver (Drums)

Track 8-14 is made up entirely from 'Cast Of Thousands' out takes which sounded more raw and punk than when the LP came out

T.V. Smith (Vocals)
Gay [sic] Advert (Bass)
Howard Pickup (Lead Guitar)
