Here we've got another version of 'Harmony In Your Bathroom',some early rehearsal tapes, some farting about in WRMS studios during the Marineville sessions,a complete live set from a gig in Aylesbury and the obligatory bedroom recording.

2. Forest Fire (2:59)
3. Harmony In Your Bathroom (Alt Take) (3:47)
4. Live In Aylesbury Sept 1979 (40:16)

The 'Aylesbury' show is from somewhere else, they did not play the Aylesbury show. The band introduction is by, er, me. I don't remember which gig it was, but Manchester Factory Club 22/09/79 seems the most likely.
