The follow up of the Stand by me Vol. 1 brings more outtakes from the Gospels sessions from 1960 & 1966. And I have to admit I really like this cd, and the sound quality is just as good as the 1st volume. But, I think this is a better release because we can hear now the false starts and studio chats, and most of the alternate takes difference, (especially from the 1966 sessions) from the original takes, at least much more then the alternate takes on Volume 1. This is a must have, no doubt about it.
