"Purple Dancer" (original 45 mix; which hasn't been released on CD)
"World In Harmony" (the original 45 mix, which hasn't seen itself on CD either)
"Trinity" (the Danny Kirwan Bare Trees outtake)
"Bermuda Triangle" (a live version from '74)
"Cool Water" (the "Gypsy" single B-side)
the Tango... singles' B-sides ("Book of Miracles", "You & I, Part 1", "Down Endless Street")


"Oh Diane"?? No, I wouldn't inflict that on Fleetwood Mac fans again, either; would insert the Mirage outtake "Goodbye Angel" instead.

Would put a 1975-76 era live "Rhiannon" in place of the studio track

Would include "Paper Doll" & "Love Shines".

Well, I guess this one really ISN'T as close to what I'd compile as I originally thought.

Thanks for your reply, chiliD. I think mine represented all members and eras of the band. I wanted to add more Danny/Jeremy/Welch songs, but Peter's were so good and more successful. I tried to be somewhat realistic with the box set including all the hits. So yeah alot from Rumours and Oh Diane(it was a top ten hit in the UK).

Live Rhiannon from '75-76 sounds great! Adding Paper Doll and Love Shines, the last one a favorite of mine, would require eliminating a Stevie and Christine song from Behind the Mask/Time.

I have another box set I done too, Disc #1 for Peter/Danny/Welch and the Post-Rumours crew, and a disc each for Christine/Lindsey/Stevie.
