They don't always make the right decision, and Heep have more than their share of albums with the wrong choice of tracks on the album, and wrong choice as b sides. I agree Why was left off for good reason, same as She Still Calls, and Holy Roller, but Sail the Rivers is far better than Dream On, which I find very weak. High and Mighty had 2 outtakes far better than a couple of tracks used, and the second Two Lawton era albums could have been far better if they switched a couple songs not used as well. Once again the producers don't always know which songs to use or not to use, or it would be easy to make hit albums, or singles. DS

>With all respect, people who produce LP's most of the time do know exactly what they do - and that is why there is no "Why" on Look At Yourself or Demons And Wizards, for the same very reason there's no "Sail The Rivers" on Sea Of Light or, for instance, "She Still Calls His Name". Those songs either do not fit the disk or are inferior to the rest of the material. In this case I suggest the first (both songs are good), but still hardly they are better than "Against The Odds", "Dream On, "Time Of Revelation" or "Universal Wheels", admit it. And I will say less of "Holy Roller" for that is definitely the second condition mentioned above. :))))
