    Take Away The Music (single version) - Good quality, somewhat country feel
    Alabama Man (single version)- Funky!
    Don't You Know A Lady (single version) - Good quality recording; sounds like something Sweet might have done in the early days
    Phone You (single version)- B side to a single; sounds like an answer to Sweet's "Call Me"
    Hypnotised (single version) - Great tune, good quality
    Fade Away (single version)- Sadly somewhat prophetic about Brian's career, but a decent tune
    Magic Circle (demo version) - Great song! Should have been on a Sweet record
    Take Away The Music (country version) - Not as good as the single version
    Alabama Man (demo version) - Interesting alternate take
    Lady (previously unreleased)- Didn't like it at first, but it grows on you
    Old Folks (previously unreleased)- Not up to much of the rest of the material
    Fade away (demo version)- Pretty similar to the released version
    Jailbait (previously unreleased)- Very cool groove, though the lyrics are kind of corny
    Phone You (demo version)- OK, but not as good as the single version
    Sunshine Days (demo version)- WONDERFUL song, but the recording quality is so bad it's hard to hear it. Should have been recorded properly and put on a Sweet album. Sounds like their early stuff.
    Red Headed Rage (early demo)- Poor recording quality and obviously unfinished conceptually
    The Final Show (early demo)- GREAT rocker, but again the recording quality is poor and obviously unfinished. Wish this one could be salvaged. It's definitely worth a shot.
    Bad Bad Line (early demo)- Awful.
    Poppa Joe (Unitone Rockers + BC) - Good recording quality, but I much prefer the original
    Magic Circle (previously unreleased)- Decent alternative version
    Take Away The Music (early version)- Interesting alternative version, but did they need three versions of the same song on this album? LOL

    It's available on eBay for a fairly reasonable price. Here's a link to one of the people selling it.
