It pisses me off that the wildest 60s combo at least in the UK, only has a bunch of BBC live recordings to document their legendary untamed performance. The 15 recordings I've compiled are, as the title suggests, from officially released sources and pretty well recycled over the years. But if you're looking for a place where all their recordings up to 1966 are packed into one place, here's your chance. Not nearly what I've read over the years of the witnesses to their gruesome rituals, but fierce enough for British broadcast, I guess. There's a Dutch TV performance on YouTube, but as far as I know there's never been a proper bootleg release.

About me
Garage Punk Pounders, Soul Stompers, Greasy R&B, Funky Sizzlers and Mod Freakbeat fuzzters (mostly)! Grown Up Wrong in the 90s, hooked with the grooves of Acid Jazz and Madchester's Rave scene. A lot of Indie Pop jangles too. Reverend in the Church of Venerated Saint Johnny Thunders. In love with shakin' maracas, tambourines and wailin' farfizas. Little Richard was the King & Queen of Rock'n'Roll. The first Punk Rocker was a gay blackman from Macon, GA. FUCK YOU! Subvert normality, Kill All Hippies. Antifascist/antiracist/antisocial/anti-stupid.
