Originally a CD only release collecting Form And Meaning Reach Ultimate Communion and sundry b-sides, Gentlemen, Start Your Egos has been reconfigured as a compilation of rarities from around the time of TISM's late 80's explosion onto the music scene.

In addition to b-sides such as “The Back Upon Which Jezza Jumped” and “(I Think I’ve Got) Mick Jagger Worked Out”, the inclusions of rarities “Opium Is The Religion Of The Masses”, the original “Saturday Night Palsy” and two tracks delivered to 3PBS for airplay but never released makes this a vital addition to any fan’s TISM collection.

The CD includes 9 previously unavailable recordings of TISM Live at The Club, 17th December 1986
