I finally tracked down the Stones iTunes bonus track, "Bad Luck Hideaway," without having to buy the files of the entire album and man is it good! You can tell within seconds it's Charlie on drums, and the dual lead vocals give it a "Salt Of The Earth" vibe. Shoulda been on the album instead of "Mr. Charm." And I really dig my second edit.

Lizzy's "Renegade" is underrated, misunderstood, and unfairly dismissed. It covers a lot of musical ground, and it's all very convincing. But diehards hated the keyboards. The one-two punch of "Hollywood" and "No One Told Him" that opens Side Two should have given this band two big hits. "Hollywood" alone has enough hooks to snag a flounder, from the killer refrain- "When you're down on your luck," to the brief but meaty guitar solo, to Phil Lynott's "WOOO HOOOS" on the coda, this song is a killer.

I was able to find Bad Luck Hideaway as well. Great song, indeed - definitely should've been included. Like your FT edit.
