It's called like that because there's a short cover of this song on it, plus instrumental jams.

Exactly I can't but I'm quite sure it was before 1970. It may be be short after the release of the Beatles' song, in 1966.

True, it is believed to be from 1968. There are 3 edited versions of these tapes circulating, none of them complete (compared to the uncirculating original 4 DAT's). Sure something interesting for collectors. Personally I don't like it that much, but that goes for all of the Wailers' JAD output.
