I never knew this "first version" - I´m really impressed!
But look at 1.50: Mick starts reading the teleprompter. Las Vegas began in 1965!

Huh!
The video is the same in both clips.
The audio is not the same in both clips.
No new video footage at all.
Someone has dubbed the (first version) softer Mercy audio onto the harder Mercy's video.
Keith and Brian are totally out of sync in some places in the softer first version because of the mismatched audio/video.

This is the first version of "Mercy, mercy", recorded half a year before the official version. I call it the sweet version. Like it. Has a short guitar solo in it. Slightly different lyrics too. From the bootleg "2120 South Michigan Avenue" from [vivalesbootlegs.blogspot.com]

Hm, very strange with the ton of overdubs, but a very, very good version, imo.
Is this backing tracks recorded for a tv-performance, matrix-mixed with the early studio version, perhaps?
