Released on Beer's Talking Elephant label, they said of the album "This double CD release features the two albums “Hard Hats” from 1994 and “The Works” from 1989. This was during the time when Phil was touring with The Rolling Stones and near the beginnings of Show of Hands. Thus this was a great time for Phil and the music reflects this. It reflects the work of a truly talented multi-instrumentalist in depth and gravity and also highlights the more quirky, light nature of his music.".[2] This confused many people, The Works was believed to be released in 1998, but they confused people it was released in 1989.
