Featuring three tracks from the Normal Service Resumed album plus a demo version of Another Cuba recorded in 1992 with Scott Snowdon on guitar, it was released on yellow vinyl only, but also came out on CD with another 1992 demo track; Lydia.

Alan Campbell replaced Snowdon after seeing the band play at The Barrowlands in Glasgow on 17th March 1992, he reckoned he was a better guitarist and asked for an audition, he got the job and the rest is history (Source: Paul Mileman, official UK Subs website).
