All songs never recorded by the band officially except *

Mott: no live version ever released offically by the band
Nice: released BBC version must be 1967, as it has guitarist Davy O'List, who left early in the year. It is around 3 minutes long and features organ prominently. This version is over 7 minutes long, has no organ,
different tempo, and no guitar. Date is very likely June 8, 1969.
