"Please Don't Touch" is actually a studio track which 
The Who recorded a few days before they synched to it 
for the "Ready, Steady, Go!" Xmas show '65. (Initially,
they had selected another song to do - can't remember
which). As much as it would be nice to see its release, 
the song wouldn't belong on a live compilation.

I am very intrigued by what is still "in the archives"
since so many of the RSG! performances are believed to
have been wiped after broadcast. It's disheartening to
know that out of all the times The Who appeared there, 
only 2 songs (from the same show) have been officially 
released.
