Rock 'n' Roll Sequenced Compilation - part 1
On August 20, 1987, two medleys were assembled from sessions, for promotional purposes. Interesting is that these include (parts of) songs that would not be included on the official releases. These medleys (also known as Choba B CCP Medley I and II) were leaked online in April 2010, presumably from cassettes from the legacy of former Wings roadie Trevor Jones, auctioned off by Christie's in 1998.

Your website is just wonderful, and I have long wanted to thank you for all the amazing content.
Just one small correction comes to mind: The Album „Снова в СССР” is wrongly transliterated, it should be “Snova v SSSR”, if put in Latin letters. Alternatively, you could get the correct Cyrillic version by using Latin capital letters: “CHOBA B CCCP”.
