My comments:

Two radio shows featuring George Harrison. On the Alan Freeman program George plays several acoustic guitar versions of his songs which have been previously available out of this context. On disc two there's the 'I Got Stung' track which has been previously released on Yellow Cat's own 'I Got Stung' (yc 066).
