The video and CD contain twelve songs from the tour, consisting mainly of songs from The Kick Inside and Lionheart with a new song "Violin"; which would subsequently appear on Bush's third studio album Never for Ever in 1980.

In September 1979, Bush released an EP of four tracks recorded at the final dates of her only major tour, called On Stage, which reached No.10 in the UK singles chart.[2] The EP includes a performance of "L'Amour Looks Something Like You" which was cut from the abridged live album.
