Good point! I remember putting out a quiz at one point asking "what do the 
following albums have in common", and the common thread was that the artist 
did record the title track, but put it on another album. Queen's "News Of The 
World" and Led Zep's "Houses Of The Holy" leap to mind as examples. I had a 
couple others, but I'm blankin' on 'em now. Oh, and I had The Who's "Face 
Dances" as a "sort-of fits" because Pete Townshend recorded "Face Dances Part 
II" on a solo album.
