Oh man, I never thought of it that way, but you're right. We know the gems they left off Binaural in place of Soon Forget so that does make it easier for me to cast that song out as a PJ tune. I guess I don't really know what could have replaced some of those other solo type EV songs, which are all good songs, but would have been better served as Ed solo stuff. I guess I would have preferred Of the Earth making an album over one of them.
Of The Earth woulda been great inclusion - I'd love to hear studio version of that song! Also, you made me think about Binaural with all the extra tracks added...double album like Exile On Main Street or Mellon Collie. In some ways Vitalogy was an album that did included all it's B-sides if you consider the "non-songs". Vitalogy would have still been very strong without those extra songs IMO. Some people like them, some don't. All I know is my Vitalogy vinyl has side 4 exclusively dedicated to Stupid Mop...I never play it that side. :(
Vitaology without "non-songs": 1. Last Exit 2. Spin The Black Circle 3. Not For You 4. Tremor Christ 5. Nothingman 6. Whipping 7. Corduroy 8. Satan's Bed 9. Better Man 10. Immortality
If I had the power to retrack (the amazing) Vitalogy, it would look like this: Side 1 1. Last Exit 2. Spin The Black Circle 3. Not For You 4. Nothingman 5. Tremor Christ 6. Pry To Side 2 1. Corduroy 2. Whipping 3. Satan's Bed 4. Better Man 5. Immortality 6. Aya Davanita
I like that order...we only lose Bugs and Stupid Mop. Those two could have worked on Lost Dogs too.

You could add in Hard to Imagine, I got Id and Long Road and it's a darn near perfect album. I got Id and Long Road were recorded in early Feb 1995, or about two months after Vitalogy came out, so if you delay the release of the album, they could have easily been on there. Hard to Imagine had been kicking around since 1992 with no real home, so that certainly would have been a better inclusion compared to any of the wasted tracks. Finally, Immortality into Long Road would be a fantastic end to the album.
Or you could start the album with Long Road and end with Immortality. That would be fitting.
My suggested album: 1. Last Exit 2. Spin The Black Circle 3. Not For You 4. Tremor Christ 5. Nothingman 6. Hard to Imagine 7. Whipping 8. I got Id 9. Corduroy 10. Satan's Bed 11. Better Man 12. Immortality 13. Long Road
