Thanks for the clarification Tapio.
I have Time of Revelation too but haven't played it for years, but must do
so again!

Hi Damian

'Five Miles' was the title of bootleg that appeared in late 80's or early
90's and it included five songs (Fools, Life Is A Dream, Never Forget, Been
Hurt & I Won't Change) all from 1979 sessions of what was planned to be the
fourth album with John Lawton.

'Ten Miles High' was the title of a bootleg cd that appeared around
1999 and this included all the songs on 'Five Miles' plus three more
unreleased songs (That's How I Am, Tonight & You And I) from these same 1979
sessions. On the cd there were also four songs most probably all from
Firefly sessions (Been Away Too Long (demo version), I Always Knew, Dance
Dance Dance & Put Your Music Where Your Mouth Is). All these are taken from
tapes that were in circulation among Heep collector's and at the time were
all unreleased recordings. In addition there are three tracks (Let It Ride,
Feelings & Your Love) also from 1979 sessions but these had already been
released on A Time Of Revelation box set and this is where these are taken
from. The last track A Far Better Way is also taken from this box set and it
is originally an out-take from Fifefly sessions.
