1. Intro: Ballad of the virgin soldiers Theme-tune written by Ray for a 1970 TV-Play) 2. I'm a hog for you, Baby 3. I believed you (Tracks 2 + 3 are the very first studio-recordings by the Kinks, when they were still the Ravens, November 1963) 4. Revenge (alternate version) 5. Got love if you want it (alternate version) Tracks 4 + 5 are outtakes from early 1964) 6. Don't ever let me go Projected third single. Never released, this is, with hindsight, a truly historic song because it shows that the riff to "You really got me" didn't came out of the blue!) [this song was actually recorded after YRGM was released. -dte] 7. This I know 8. A little bit of sunlight 9. Tell me now so I'll know 10. There's a new world just opening for me Tracks 7 - 10 are publisher's demos of new Ray Davies-compositions, late May 1965. These songs were never professionally recorded by the Kinks). 11. All night stand (acoustic demo, late 1965) 12. Time will tell ("Kink Kontroversy"-outtake, late 1965) 13. Spotty Grotty Anna (backing track only) 14. And I will love you 15. She's got everything (Vocals recorded in early 1968 and eventually released as a B-side of "Days") 16. Dedicated follower of fashion (Unreleased "acoustic"-version) 17. Mr. Reporter (Great unreleased version with Ray on vocals!) (Tracks 13 - 17 were recorded in February 1966 for a planned third EP "Occupations"). 18. Sand on my shoes (early version of "Tin soldier man") 19. Lavender Hill 20. Rosemary Rose (Tracks 18 - 20 are "Something else ..." outtakes, spring 1967). 21. Misty Waters 22. Mr. Songbird (Tracks 21 + 22 are "Village Green ..." outtakes, spring 1968). 23. Did you see his name 24. Where did my spring go 25. When I turn off the living room light 26. Till death us do part 27. Pictures in the sand 28. Berkeley Mews (B-side to "Lola", 1970) (Tracks 23 - 28 were recorded for a six-part BBC-TV-show entitled WHERE WAS SPRING? - one song per show - in, you guessed it, spring 1969, prior to "Arthur...") 29. Easy come, there you went ("Arthur...", outtake, summer 1969) 30. This man he weeps tonight (A superior stereo mix of this otherwise "released" Dave Davies song).
