I don't believe there are any real new, unreleased Hednrix songs on the album. Rather alternative or working versions, covers played for fun or (excerpts from) jams. The "new" Mannish Boy sounds OK but. let's be honest, it does not really shake the earth. I can't listen to Train because of Geo-IP-blocking but I have a studio version somewhere, just wondering if it's the same.
Very much to his legal successors' benefit, Jimi was fond of endless overdubs and alternative versions, and did a lot of jamming and let the tape roll all the time. Basically, take any hour of jamming, slice it up evenly into tracks and hey presto! here's your new Jimi Hendrix album.

Perhaps the Stills/Hendrix jam from "Black Gold"? (Or some excerpt thereof?). BG also has Sending My Love To Linda and a couple of (out)takes of Mannish Boy. I have BG somewhere on some hard disc but to be honest, never made it to listen to it in its entirety (or so I believe, rather just skimming through the tracks), so no idea whether that version of Mannish Boy is on there, too. Judging from the titles and despriptions, a good deal of the tracks might also be found on the "Studio 70" boot (15 CDs), or others, the Jimi Hendrix & Stephen Stills stuff is also circulated on boots. Once Both Sides is out - and if I have enough time - I might compare.
Generally it seems that as far as Jimi's studio activities are concerned, the bootleggers have been far more active than Experience Hendrix, there are tons of stuff out there (and for a long time already), so there's a good chance that "newly discovered tapes" are in fact in circulation since the 2000s.

The following tracks/versions are not circulating or available on bootlegs:
Lover Man (Band of Gypsys version)
Stepping Stone (early take)
$20 Fine (Stills vocals/organ, Jimi guitars)
(Sweet) Angel (early instrumental w/vibraphone)
The rest are (slightly) alternate versions/mixes.

Thank you rootsman ! You're correct. I may also add this new version of "Hear My Train A Comin'".
