The release contained two live tracks that appeared on the team's forthcoming Drury Lane LP, although "Election Night Special" is a longer edit than that would feature on the album.
Michael Palin provided new linking material, with his performance as the Head of NME sounding a very close relation to Mr Gumby.
In 2014 the record was reissued on heavyweight 45 rpm vinyl as part of Monty Python's Total Rubbish.
