You discover something new everyday. For example, I learned today that I don't like the taste of water AND I came across this magnificent artifact.

Wikipedia: The Vanilla Tapes were demo tracks recorded by the English punk band The Clash -- in essence, an early version of their album London Calling (although the track Remote Control was a song from the band's first album). Roadie Johnny Green was to deliver the tapes to the band's new producer, Guy Stevens; Green fell asleep on the train ride to the studio. Waking up at the station where he was to disembark, he panicked, and in his rush left the tapes behind. After that, the tapes were considered lost until March 2004, when Clash guitarist Mick Jones was moving boxes and came upon a copy of the tape.
The newly discovered Vanilla Tapes were released as a bonus disc when London Calling was remastered and re-issued as the Legacy Edition in September 2004. According to the booklet, there were 37 tracks on the tapes; only 21 were included on the CD.
