The CD was withdrawn on the day of release due to a legal dispute with Island Records but 3,500 copies were already in the shops and were allowed to remain in circulation.[2] For many years this was a highly desirable collectable amongst fans until 2007 when the expanded Live at the BBC box set superseded this album.
