Lineup note
All The Beautiful Worlds (Unreleased Version) into Daysleeper

All The Beautiful Worlds (Unreleased Version) by Stevie Nicks off The Wild Heart (Deluxe Edition) (2016) belongs here because Daysleeper by R.E.M. and Tones Of Home by Blind Melon provide a fresh turn while keeping the emotional pressure steady after Burden In My Hand by Soundgarden.. Daysleeper is waiting as the answer, so this record is doing more than setting a mood; it is shaping the turn.
