The track listed as "Hawaiian Boogie" (an Elmore James number) is actually Jeremy's "Evenin' Boogie" from Mr. Wonderful - the two are quite similar. And to make things even more confusing, the track listed as "Shake Your Moneymaker" actually refers to "Evenin' Boogie" as well! On first listen, it does almost sound as if it could be an instrumental version of "SYM", but it's clearly "Evenin' Boogie".

In short, lots of confusion about this session in particular and Mac's BBC sessions in general. Wish all the sessions would be released with some good liner notes to set the record straight!
God, you're not wrong! Thanks for that - Jeremy was a bit prone to renaming songs that sound very similar, wasn't he? Just to keep us guessing. And yes, some new releases with full listings etc would be fantastic! But I fear it's about as likely as George Harrison rejoining the Beatles... we can dream though. Presumably these sessions were pressed on to vinyl at one point though - maybe they still exist.
