The album features the England squad performing a selection of contemporary pop hits alongside the chart-topping football anthem \"Back Home\", which reached No.1 in the UK Singles Chart.

The album is most famous for its unusual die-cut circular fold-out sleeve, featuring photographs celebrating England's 1966 World Cup triumph together with facsimile signatures of the 1970 squad members.
