Runtime - 1 Hour 53 Minutes 25 Seconds
This 2cd set compiles some of the best uncirulating or hard-to-find Badfingersemos and studio outtakes.
Many other worth tracks were excluded since they already appear in excellent quality on other collections(i.e.'Apple Demos 1970-1972' and Complete Ass').
Highlights include a 'new' version of "Coppertone Blues", the speed corrected demo of "Without You", the first appearance on cd of an alternate'piano version' of "Do You Mind" and rough mixes of several tracks from their classic Apple-era.
In addition, the second disc includes the original mix of the 1974 'Head First' album taken from a cassette obtained directly from Mike Gibbins in the late 90's.
These 1974 mixes are different from the 2000 Snapper CD mixes and are a major upgrade from other circulating copies.
