There is a 1975 CBM
release with the same title. The only connection is that both releases
include the title track. For years it was thought that this was a Dylan
outtake from a Beatles/Dylan session. It sounds remarkably like Bob, but
it is actually from an obscure USA band called "Family Frog".

Information:
This rare 2 LP set came out in Holland in 1970. There were 1000 copies
pressed. It is the first known rock era bootleg LP to be pressed in Europe.
It was produced by a group of collectors as a revolt against the high prices
charged for the USA import 'GWW'. It is rumored that the group went by
the name of "The Nederlandse Producite Label". The cover and labels
were all blank white. A few months later, the LP was reissued in a quantity
of 1500. This second issue has a small 'help' title stamp on the
front cover. The reissue labels are full printed with the song titles.
The original issue is referred to as '42 A' by Dominique Roques' gwa...
the reissue as '42 B'.
Unfortunately, the sound quality of this title and its reissue is particularly
bad.
