Background


The Total Eclipse Anthology was compiled and annotated by Gerald Armin, who also wrote the liner notes for Tyler's other compilations Greatest Hits (2001) and Lost in France: The Early Years (2005). It features Tyler's debut single "My! My! Honeycomb" which had not previously appeared on any album since its standalone release in 1976. The compilation features a slipcase cover art with a photograph of Tyler taken by David Hurn in October 2001. The cover art for the CD booklet features an image taken for Tyler's album Secret Dreams and Forbidden Fire in 1986.
