I also wonder, if the album was released, who the musicians were who played on it. Probably Hugh on all bass. It would be interesting if Jon and Bobby covered all guitar parts. With DA being Jon's experimental album, one could only assume that SS was going to be more of a simple rock record, probably thrown together in Jon's home studio.
Although we heard a lot of demos written around that period, it's hard to tell which ones were specific to DA, SS, & Crush. I think that the 6 songs listed above, the ones that were never officially released, were key songs to that album.
Here are songs that I believe could have made the final album (along with the few listed above):
Rich Man
Just Older
Crazy Love
Last Chance Train
These Arms Are Open All Night
Real Life
Here are songs that I think were written for it but would have never made it for one reason or another:
Hush (I'm 50/50 on this one)
Life's Too Short (I'm 50/50 on this one)
All I Wanna Do Is You
Shut Up And Kiss Me
Gimme Some
Kidnap An Angel
Mister Big Time (I'm 50/50 on this one)

Agree with most of this but All I wanna do is you is a Jon and Richie song so probably intended for a band album and written early '99.
