All Good Clean Fun was originally a promotional sampler issued by United Artists Records (UDX 201/2) in 1971. This original release was a double album containing 23 tracks by 20 different artists, with three artists; Morning, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Canned Heat, having 2 tracks each. Most of the artists had been signed by Andrew Lauder at Liberty Records, who were rebranded as United Artists in 1971, the year this sampler was issued. Both labels were part of Transamerica Corporation since 1968.

To promote the album "The All Good Clean Fun Tour" was undertaken to Switzerland by Man, Help Yourself and Gypsy. This gave rise to the song "All Good Clean Fun" on Man’s Do You Like It Here Now, Are You Settling In? album.

All Good Clean Fun – A Journey through the Underground of Liberty United Artists Records 1969–1975 was released by EMI (Liberty 8660902) in 2004. This is a triple CD with 39 tracks from 25 artists although many of the artists are inter-related (The Bonzo’s, Roger Ruskin Spear and Neil Innes: Hawkwind, Motörhead and Robert Calvert: Man, Deke Leonard, Clive John and The Neutrons). As with other EMI sampler re-issues, such as A Breath of Fresh Air, the CD release borrows the original title, albeit adding a long subtitle, and uses a variation on the cover art, but incorporates fewer than half the tracks included on the original album. These tracks are augmented by other artists and additional tracks from some of the original artists, so this is a retrospective compilation, rather than a re-issue of the original promotional sampler.
