*Not all musicians play on all tracks

While most of the tracks will be familiar to many, many of these versions will be quite unfamiliar, and are well worth a listen or three. The sound quality is very good, with few extraneous hisses, and probably came from the mixing desk.

This is impossible to find 'new' - I buy all my rarities from ebay, but I recommend observing before bidding - prices vary considerably.
Check if there's a copy for sale.
Most of the tracks are available on studio and compilation CDs.
