Eternal Damnation - bootleg CD
Minigaps. I've seen conflicting dates for this, but it's the '83 show with the short set and long version of 'Aggressive Perfector' with guitar dueling.
From the Crypts of Eternity - 2CD bootleg
Minigaps. Mishmash of '83-'85 live, demo, and rehearsal material. Unfortunately I can't confirm most of the live dates and I think a lot of the live dates may be mixed up or wrong. Also only has handfuls of tracks from various live gigs, no complete ones. Includes the only live version known of 'The High Priestess' from '83, a rough mix of 'Live Undead,' '83 demo tracks, some of the 'Ultimate Revenge' live tracks, etc.

Live San Francisco Jan. 30, 1984. Conversion of the LP that's listenable, but with heavy sound distortion. Minigaps.
Hanneman demo - 1985
Hanneman singing and playing guitar along with a drum machine. 4 tracks. Includes very rough versions of riffs/lyrics later used for 'Reign in Blood' and later recordings. Not sure if this is complete. Since there are vocals, it differs from the rough tracks on 'Soundtrack to the Apocalypse' (which were mislabeled anyway), so I'm not sure if those are from the same session, especially since another rough 'Raining Blood' version appears here.
