Come parte della acclamata "Sessions Series", FTD è felice di annunciare la pubblicazione di "Devil In Disguise - The Lost Album Sessions" in un digipack da 3 CD.
Inciso, per la maggior parte, nell'arco di due giorni, queste svariate ed eccellenti performances hanno finito per essere sparpagliate in molte pubblicazioni della RCA Victor tra il 1963 ed il 1968.
Si è dovuto attendere fino al 1990 perché le canzoni venissero radunate finalmente, come nell'intenzione originale, in un appropriato album della RCA.
Quasi 60 anni dopo, la FTD presenta tutti i masters e le outtakes disponibili da quelle sessions.
