The band was formed by former Fatal Microbes Pete Fender (Dan Sansom, guitar), Gem Stone (Gemma Sansom, bass) and It (Quentin North, also bass), with vocalists Annie Anxiety and Womble, and drummer Sid Ation (born Sid Truelove, 18 April 1960, Sutton Coldfield, a former chef, later also the drummer with Flux of Pink Indians).
"Bless Those (Little Annie's Prayer)," which was co-written by Annie Bandez and Doug Wimbish, was originally recorded and released on Little Annie's 1992 album Short and Sweet.

The tracklist features hits and album cuts spanning the group's entire career, as well as bassist Doug Wimbish making his vocal debut with the band on the then unreleased track "Bless Those" (a different version, "Bless Those (Little Annie's Prayer)" was later released on The Chair in the Doorway).
