[kj] TOTALLY unheard track!

[Alex Smith]

"Hollywood Babylon" was indeed released -- on the soundtrack to Showgirls.

And I heard "The Fanatic" with my own ears when they played it live at the Cat Club in 1989. Thus, to call it "totally unheard" isn't exactly accurate.

>  I do believe that they have a right to label it *Unheard* , because by-rights we should NOT have heard it . *Hollywood Babylon* can be labelled as *Unreleased*, because we would have heard it, but it wasnt released. So *The Fanatic* is (or should be) both unheard and unreleased.
