that batch of songs from around 1989 that were only played live

[trev]

songs like i am my end, razor, try to try, lie i lie, salt, etc.

the last time the band went to reel time studios was apparently to record these songs, but jimmy didn't show up so they did an acoustic session instead: http://www.spfc.org/band/studio.html?session_id=6

but why didn't they ever record them at any of the next chances they had?

it seems strange that the band just abandoned the idea of recording those songs for some reason. they were still playing some of these songs live in 1990, 1991, and even i am my end in 1992, so they obviously didn't hate the songs or anything.
especially with billy being quite particular about putting compositions into the LOC to protect copyright, anyone know why these were neglected?
