This an album from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) group Diamond Head and was released in 1987 by FM Revolver Records before being re-released by Heavy Metal Records in 1994.
This album contains all the tracks from Diamond Head's 1982 Borrowed Time plus two extra tracks Dead Reckoning and Sucking My Love. The latter was previously released on the bands 1980 debut Lightning to the Nations. The former had already been released on two previous Diamond Head records. It appears on the Four Cuts EP and as a B-side to the single Call Me, both were released by MCA in 1982 (however, the 7" version of Call Me was only released in France).
The songs off this compilation are much less polished compared to their Borrowed Time versions. Many fans prefer the versions of the songs on this album as many blamed Diamond Head's previous label, MCA, of trying to over commercialize the band.
