It gathers early rough mixes, demos and alternative versions of all nine of the album's songs, none of them released before, and this is their first appearance on vinyl. The LP is pressed on 180-gram clear vinyl in a run of 750 copies, housed in a poly-lined inner sleeve with a 12\" x 12\" insert of track-by-track sleevenotes by Alan Parsons. Like the earlier Work In Progress releases, it was made with the full involvement of Parsons and the estate of Eric Woolfson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe takes show the songs before their finished singers arrived. Woolfson plays piano on \"I'd Rather Be a Man\" and sings a guide vocal on \"If I Could Change Your Mind\", and Chris Rainbow, who joined the Project on this album, is heard on multitracked vocals for \"Secret Garden\" and backing vocals with recorder on \"Winding Me Up\". \"Lucifer\" appears as a single-edit experiment, and four more songs arrive as rough backing tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArista released \u003cem\u003eEve\u003c\/em\u003e on August 27, 1979.
