The Masked Marauders was not made by the famous musicians it purported to feature (Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison), it was a hoax orchestrated by Rolling Stone magazine editors Greil Marcus and Langdon Winner. 

The actual recording was performed by the Berkeley-based band Cleanliness and Godliness Skiffle Band, who provided vocal impersonations and instrumental backing. The album was released in November 1969 on Warner Bros. newly created Deity label (distributed by Reprise), following a satirical review Marcus published in Rolling Stone that convinced fans and retailers a real supergroup existed.

"This compillation by Sony Music Japan’s 2012 two CD set “Original Singles A’s & B’s 1965-1971” which compiles both sides of every US single released during the period, as well as some sides that were withdrawn before hitting record stores. The fifty two tracks are all included in their original mono single mixes, with the exceptions of “Citizen Kane” and “Farther Along” which were only recorded in stereo and were never folded down or prepared in any mono format. The forty eight page booklet contains the full lyrics in both Japanese and English, although all the other notes are unfortunately included only in Japanese. The set comes with an OBI strip and as with all Japanese releases, the sound is simply immaculate. Fans of 1960s folk, psychedelic and country rock will definitely want this set in their collection." - K. Rathert
