According to HawkFan no. 10 There was a John Peel recording session
early 1969, which included "Bring it on Home" (that session would make
for a great release!!!). The original version was apparantly recorded at
the Royal Albert Hall in 1968, and released on "The Buskers", which was
the recording of that event.

Hope that little bit of info is useful.
