"Before Hollywood" was released in May 1983 in the UK on Rough Trade Records, an independent music label. It was The Go-Betweens' second album. The LP was recorded at I.C.C. Studios in Eastbourne, England. The original release consisted of ten tracks, including what is arguably the band's best-known song, "Cattle and Cane".
