I love the Fanatic!
Where would you place it on Extremities though?
Never saw it live, I imagine it was mental!

Never got the Fanatic. I think it’s one they were right to keep back. Like Feast Of Fools I find. A bit generic. 
I think their quality control
Is pretty damn good on the whole.

In fact it's even pretty rare for them to play something and it not appear on an official studio release (other than retrospectives etc).  Only ones I've personally seen are the Fanatic (which I saw at those two UK gigs in spring 89) and Timewave (London).  Always liked the Fanatic & couldn't understand why it didn't make the album - I think it's better than some of the tracks that did.

No, I don't think so. Sorry if I caused confusion by appearing to
suggest that. I was trying to illustrate how relatively rare it is for
songs to be dropped (either entirely or from albums) at the live stage
without any sort of studio version or demo. So far the only example
anyone has been able to come up with (other than 'Take Take Take'
obviously) is 'The Hive', which was a precursor. I guess there are
also those very early crap ones like 'You're Being Followed'. I think
there was an early live version of 'Solitude' that bore absolutely no
relation to the album version too.
