Are there missing tracks? From various sites, I have songs called Stearing Wheel, Montgomery's visit, Don't Say Goodbye and others. If anyone has a complete list of tracks, you can post it or EMAIL it to me at superxero2004@yahoo.com. Thank You.
 
Looks right to me. The problem with the Salome bootlegs is the fact that the band didn't name the songs; bootleggers and fans did--in which case there are different names for some of the songs. Example on my disk 3 song #1, it's called "Someone" instead of what you have listed and disk 3, song #6 is "Take You Down," not "Wake Up Dead Man."
 
When the working tapes went into circulation, the names of any of the files were not known, so some sets have different titles. There are 4 or 5 different pressings of these in circulation IIRC.


You should be able to figure out which one is "Dont' Say Goodbye" from this, don't know about the others.


Disc 2, Track 5 (5:09)
FWT: Morning Child / Don't Turn Around
Notes: This song is an early form of WHO'S GONNA RIDE YOUR
WILD HORSES.
Bono sings "don't say goodbye" several times in the
same melody as he sings "morning child" and "don't
turn around".
Bono goes for some vocal calisthetics toward the
end of the take.
words? "I've been down there, been down
I've been down, I've been down there...
I've been down there, oh, I've been down there."
"Don't you turn around, don't turn around."
"Oh, in your eyes an angel dies
Love in the shadows and in December rain"
"Oh, don't say goodbye, don't say goodbye..." etc.
