History
Between 1975 and 1983, Ulf Christiansson wrote many songs that Jerusalem never recorded but often played live. After a friend reminded him of these songs and asked why they had never been on an album, Christiansson decided to record them, but he wanted to use the band members who were in Jerusalem when the songs were actually written.
