Since 1988 I've done a series of compilation ~~tapes~~ ~~CDs~~ directories called Best of Each n, on which I put one song from each album I buy.

Mansion on the Hill was my choice from Nebraska.

I play the most recent BofE in the car when I go on holiday, and I always start the CD at the same place. So I associate this song with the A422 between Brackley and Banbury.

They did record a full LP with the album, solos, Bombast and all the Bruce Springsteen Consipated shouting, but they released the demo versions recorded on a 4 track.

Correctly.
