Playin' In The Band
Historic moment with Keith's rehearsals, so there's that. But there's also some magic here and they really bite into the groove. Some sound issues.

Jack Straw
Historic oddity. Keith's rehearsal and three weeks before the first live version. Alternate lyrics, but fun. Some sound issues, tape wobble/speed.

Deep Elem Blues
Unique as an electric funky blues. The only recording of it between 70 and 78 in a studio rehearsal. Pity this didn't go into rotation this way.
