The set was mastered and remastered at Abbey Road Studios by Adam Nunn.〔 The compilation was named after an album track from ''The Psychomodo'' album. The sleeve notes, under the heading "Young, Feisty and Fearless", were written by Harley himself, in which he recalls the writing of the songs, formation of the early stage of his career, and the recording of the two albums with the original line-up. Harley also made note that he was considering performing the two Cockney Rebel albums in their entirety. On 24 November 2012, Harley performed the two albums at the Birmingham Symphony Hall, with a 50-piece orchestra and chamber choir. The following year saw the release of the live album ''Birmingham (Live with Orchestra & Choir)''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Official Steve Harley Website UK - The Times – a brilliant, 4-Star Review )〕 ==Contents== Both of the band's albums are featured on Disc One and Two respectively: ''The Human Menagerie'' (1973) and ''The Psychomodo'' (1974), along with B-Sides, and other tracks.
