I have this bootleg. I bought it about 10 years ago before the anthologies came out (it is the extent of my Beatles bootleg collection). I took it out the other day dusted it off and wondered... is there any rare songs on this CD that makes it worth having? Here is the track listing:

01 Dear Prudence
02 Ob La Di Ob La Da
03 The Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill
04 While My Guitar Gently Weeps
05 I'm So Tired
06 Julia
07 Yer Blues
08 Yer Blues
09 Birthday
10 Sexy Sadie
11 Cry Baby Cry
12 Not Guilty
13 Not Guilty
14 What's The News Mary Jane
15 What's The News Mary Jane
16 Child Of Nature
17 A Case Of Blues

I gotta feeling this thing is as worthless as a teet on a boar hog.

I highly doubt there's anything rare on there, but some info on what versions the tracks are would help. images/icons/smile.gif

It's not completly worthless, yes nowadays you can find the tracks on countless other bootlegs, but the documents set with Yellow Dog's "Unsurpassed Masters", is a good set of outtakes, and one the better older bootlegs, tho I prefer "Unsurpassed Masters".

In short, then it was something new, now not.But If you don't have these versions on other bootlegs it's a nice cd to have.

Thanks in advance.<font size="2" face="Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif">I noticed one error,
"Child of Nature" is from the esher demo's, they were recorded at George's house, not Paul.
And yes the Esher demo's are released on many many bootlegs.

If I see a bootleg with tons of unigue recordings but together with more of the same Kinfauns demo's I am not sure wheter to buy it, I got them on god knows how many bootlegs.

Altho it doesn't say so, I believe all these demo's are from Kinfauns, aka the Esher demo's.
