Includes great 60's pop "Run Run Run", "So Sad About Us", "Doctor Doctor", my favorite "Disguises" with the zinger "sometimes she surprise me when she turns out to be you". Also the MBBB classic "Boris the Spider". I listen to the album for the first time expecting to hear the roaring Live At Leeds / Rock and Roll Circus "A Quick One", and I guess that was my fault for forming expectations. Stick with live versions - the studio one is hollow and weak. The covers such as "Heatwave" and "Barbara Ann" are fine but unnecessary. "Cobwebs and Strange" is suggestive of the interludes on Sell Out, and has that whimsy that the English are prone to, but it wears thin.
