Your favorite "not included" songs

[Steviegirl]

And in the case of "Smile at You," by 'beautiful,' I mean beautifully constructed and good.

WatchDevil: The best version is from the master reel titled "Living Room Demos". You might be able to find a link to the reel by searching the Stevie forum.

Lady from The Mountain: There are several demos found on the master reels. There are also some 80's RAL outtakes. The master reels will give you the best quality, but they are more raw than the RAL outtake, which is similar to Moonlight from IYD.

The Nightmare: There's nothing in circulation that isn't an alternate mix of the version on RAL. The most produced non-album version would be the Vocal Mix found on the 12" single for I Can't Wait.

Rumours: Silver Springs, Planets of the Universe, The Chain, Keep Me There, The Dealer, Think About It

Tusk: Kiss and Run, Beauty and the Beast, The Dealer, Lady from the Mountain, Watch Devil, The Nightmare, Farmer's Daughter, Fireflies

Mirage: If You Were My Love, Smile At You, I've Been Loving You Too Long, Blue Monday, Goodbye Angel, Cool Water

Tango: Juliet/Book of Miracles, Ricky, Down Endless Street, Joan of Arc, What Has Rock'n'Roll Ever Done For You?, Special Kind of Love

I tried to look up old threads, but got a little overwhelmed.

You & I (Part I) for TITN.
And yes, reading the songs, definitely Mirage and Tango have the best *not included* songs. No regrets.
Regards!

"Got No Home", "Victim Of Love" (demoed for BTM)

"Deep Dense", "Given Thing" (demoed before SYW)

What's not to like?

The only two I really would have liked to see in a studio album were You and I Part 1 and Fireflies. OK, I would throw in The Farmer's Daughter as well.

There were a lot of other good tunes in the reject pile, but those are my favorites.
