Question
When I was in College in Ann Arbor we had a lot of underground shops around.  I bought an album called, "JSJ, INC. Presents GET BACK and MORE".  It had "Let if Be" with Paul joking and laughing at the end, Get Back, Blah Blah Song, Teddy Boy, When You Walk (47 seconds) and other published and unpublished songs.  This was about a month before the "Let It Be" Album came out with the song.  The record sounds like bootlegged recording sessions. What do you think? If you need more info on the other songs let me know?

Answer
You are correct.  "Get Back and More" has since been re-released as "Get Back and 22 other songs" among other titles.  The bootleg generally includes the original Glyn Johns productions/mixes of the album before it was shelved and eventually given to Phil Spector to produce the only non-George Martin produced Beatle record.  Many of the tracks on this album are considered superior to the release by collectors because of the candid nature of the recordings.  It is indeed a bootleg.  Enjoy it!
