Disc 1 – Dali’s Picture – is a collection of early studio recordings that pre-date Script of the Bridge and features early versions of well-known songs such as Monkeyland, Nostalgia and Less Than Human as well as Dreams in Celluloid, an early take on Second Skin with entirely alternative lyrics.


Disc 2 – Auffuhrung in Berlin is a live concert from 1983 showing the band on full throttle belting out songs from Script of the Bridge and showcasing early versions of songs that would later appear on the band’s second studio album – tracks such as ‘Singing Rule Britannia’, ‘One Flesh; and ‘Perfume Garden’ performed here with many interesting lyrical differences.
