"BOMBAY DUCK, MARY ANNE, LITTLE BITTY TEAR, GREEN GREEN GRASS OF HOME, FOOT TAPPER, SHADOOGIE"
so I would imagine there is another Acetate out there somewhere with side two..

Bruce is fiercely proud of the Shadows' recorded legacy / reputation. Essentially, it is his strongly held belief that any unreleased material was unreleased for very good reasons. Bruce's 'Quality Control Threshold' is very, very high. Generally speaking, he does not approve of any previously unreleased material being issued...on the grounds that most (if not all) of it is (in his opinion) 'substandard'.

The notes also mention that the tapes are slightly damaged but on closer inspection i can't hear any issues (possibly cleaned up for the CD issue).

A prime example is the 50th anniversary of The Beatles White Album - why remix what George and the boys sweated over for 6 months to get sounding the way they wanted it? It's as if they're trying to change history. I also heard a couple of mellotron parts were actually re-recorded due to problems during the remix. This is nothing short of sacrilege
