COMMENTS: A pretty nice compilation disc with mostly "rare" official songs. THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD is from Saturday Night Live 15.12.79. MY DEATH is from Boston 01.10.72. "HEROES" and SLEEPING NEXT TO YOU are from Marc TV show 09.09.77. IMAGINE is from Hong Kong 08.12.83. THE JEAN GENIE is from Marquee Club 18-20.10.73. The other three songs are studio versions. Excellent sound quality, and very nice picture discs! The rest of the songs on the discs are official versions!
