One of the edits was to take out the “Spoonful” section of “Shakin’ All Over.” The story I heard was that the record company didn’t want to have to pay royalties to Willie Dixon, who wrote the song.

I caught that edit when I listed to the Complete bootleg. I originally thought they cut it since they didn't have space on that side. Further they were already paying royalties on most of the first side of Leeds. "Spoonful" wasn't cut from IOW so we got to hear it and it fits nicely.

Is it me, for a moment?
