It was released in 1992 on Creation Records and compiled the first three Slowdive EPs: Slowdive (missing the track "Avalyn II"), Morningrise (in its entirety), and Holding Our Breath (missing the Syd Barrett cover "Golden Hair" as well as "Catch the Breeze", which appeared on their first full-length Just for a Day). It was subsequently made available in the US and the UK with the initial 1000 copies of "Souvlaki" as part of a limited edition double CD.
