Breaking the Chain on Apple Music

I didn't see a thread about this. It's an "album" of interviews about the songs on Bella Donna, recorded just before the album came out. One of the songs she talks about is Julia, and she talks as if it's on the album. Which lends credence to the theory that it was pulled at the very last minute. Has anyone heard this interview?

A user on the Ivory Keys Facebook group has a very rare acetate of Bella Donna that includes Julia. She shared video of the song playing, on her turntable. It is this item:

The description is not quite right - Outside The Rain is not labeled as Julia - it is replaced with Julia. Speculation is that Outside The Rain wasn't originally going to be on the album, but instead replaced Julia at the eleventh hour. Who knows for sure. Maybe Stevie will tell us more in her liner notes for the upcoming reissue of BD.

I'm very glad that "Outside The Rain" was on BD. It's one of my favourite Stevie songs ever. "Julia", as glorious as she is, is too similar to "Bella Donna" in pace, tempo and length.

Outside the Rain is my favourite track on BD, but in a perfect world, Julia would have been given a place on the album as well. Especially on the upcoming reissue.

My apologies if this has been asked before, but with all of these bootlegs all of a sudden becoming available on legit sites such as 7digital or amazon etc., which ones are really worthwhile seeking out in terms of audio quality and historical importance? Thankful for any suggestions.
