   The very rough attempt at Mr Moonlight on Anthology 1 is quite similar to   
   the original Dr Feelgood arrangement of the song. John screws up the   
   lyrics, but is otherwise in great voice, and the guitar solo is pretty   
   weak. Otherwise, if they'd finished that version and released it, it could   
   have been a kick-ass B-Side.
