I recently created a similar post with the two Merkinball songs. Anyway, I'm making some live album compilations (using recent bootlegs) and not too sure which album to put this "lost dog" on. It was played a lot in 1992 but was a "Go" b-side.

Your responses are appreciated.

    Ten for me. Sorta like how Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane are Sgt. Peppers songs....not Magical Mystery Tour songs like they're presented.

    Just has the feel of ten, although it was a b side to ' go' , great guitar playing on the song.

    Alone is way more ten than vs. Didn't someone in PJ20 say it didn't make ten because it suffered from "one of these things sounds too close to the other" syndrome? I was going to say I thought it might have been one of their earlier demos, but now that I think about it Dave A. drums on it....so that would mean......uhhhhhhh.....

    I don't care where it almost appeared or what album's single it was on. It SOUNDS like a Ten-era tune.

    This is a fantastic debate topic. I was leaning vs at first, but I've been sold on ten, so that gets my vote.
