I think Slippery would benefit from both Borderline and Edge Of A Broken Heart, although style wise, maybe Edge was too poppy to fit on to Slippery comfortably?
I LOVE "Edge Of A Broken Heart". Had already been a fan for 5 years when I first heard it in 1991. Was blown away how good the track really is!!

That's an interesting track. I personally enjoy it almost as much as the singles, but its got "hit" written all over it...meaning its a tailormade mid-tempo hit song. Maybe over-written...if there's such a term?! But it was never a single and maybe a bit boring for some...

Same! Although there might be some which would've benefit from proper studio recording & production and they could've been at least quality-wise the same as "99 In The Shade" (which for me is almost a filler, but its done so well it fits the album....but all the live versions I've heard are boring....)
