These last two were probably added to the CD, because up till then they hadn't been included on a UK CD.
The inclusion of those two Hank Marvin tracks (because not available on a UK CD, or, indeed, any CD in stereo) was
my suggestion to the late John Friesen during a productive 'brainstorming' conversation one evening after a "Tangent" concert in Surrey. Others I suggested were the A and B sides of the John Rostill single, plus the three "live" tracks from the 1959 "Cliff" LP (which at that time, was deleted on CD).
I also urged John to include
Somewhere (in stereo) and even the seven tracks from "Established 1958" in order to make them available on a Shadows CD.
Somewhere had been released on an Australian CD ("The Shadows' Favourites") but in mono. The only sources for the stereo version just then were still on vinyl (and maybe cassette).
I hadn't known that
The Girl From Ipanema was an available EMI recording. Like others, I had recorded it onto tape in 1965 when it was included in one of the television "Cliff Richard Spectaculars" but had always assumed that it was an ATV recording made just for the show. It was quite a surprise to encounter it on the "Everything Of Value - Rarities 2" CD when it was released, especially with the orchestral overdub (not evident on the TV version).
