Songs And Song Versions

What's In Here

Official and unofficial remixes, edits, B-sides, radio sessions, alternate takes, demos, oddities and anything else I could find. Officially released live material has been included (i.e. B-sides etc), as have live versions that sound radically different to the album mixes. Some of the more common bootleg mixes have also been mentioned - not because they're genuine, but just so you know what they really are. It can be very disappointing to buy a bootleg for a "rare" version or demo, only to find it is blatantly not what it claims to be. A few unreleased things are also mentioned, in an attempt to clear some of the confusion over them.

What's Not In Here

I have not attempted to include every live version that is any good; such a list would be pointless, as it would include almost every track. Such things are usually down to personal taste anyway. I have also not included all the mono versions of things that have cropped up on promos etc, as these obviously sound the same as normal (but in mono).

My Sources

Generally, everything mentioned here is from my own, or trusted friends, collections; i.e. it definitely exists and I've heard it. Exceptions to this are made clear in the text. Unreleased material whose existence has been officially confirmed is also included, as it clearly does exist, even if no-one can get hold of it. And while I have no reason to doubt any of my sources, please note that if a guide entry says I haven't heard it myself, I can't definitely confirm the details.
