The first Third Rail CD was a compliation of songs recorded between April and July '98 and included songs from a recording session at Fudge studios, the demo tape, and a song by each member of the band. johnnie's song was not included on most copies of the CD which included a lot of silence with a couple of "hidden" live tracks.

Third Rail recorded a demo tape to give to promoters to try to get a gig. Only the first 3 tracks were included on the demo tape. It is possible that only one copy was given to a promoter who offered the first and the other Third Rail gigs followed naturally.
