I need some advice and maybe someone here that is a lot more knowledgeable than me can help me! I know as they
reissued some of the LPs and CDs that tracks were added and taken off and generally mixed up. I cannot find a track lists for all albums that shows the
difference in the UK versions, American versions and the reissues. Does anyone know where I can find an ACCURATE one? I've even checked the discography
here on HSH but it isn't making sense to me, (again it could be just me making it more difficult than it should be!).
What started my desperate search was this- some of you know about our little Saturday night Vinyl Record Club get togethers here, well I am desperately trying to find a Sweet album that I can play that will get everyone's attention and not get the moans and groans that I get when I suggest playing one. They all associate Sweet with Little Willy, Ballroom Blitz and basically the only hits heard here in the states. I keep trying to convince them that they had great ROCKING stuff like Cockroach, Yesterday's Rain, No You Don't, Turn It Down just thinking of a few.So I started trying to find the ALBUM that has Turn It Down for example and I can't find it in any of my albums that I have. What the h*ll album was it originally on so I can get me a copy of it? My biggest problem is, I have most of my stuff on CD bought here in America and am starting to accumulate the LPs (unforunately, years ago I downsized my album collection figuring I would never get to play them again, and I believe that when doing this with my husband, the few albums I managed to get in my teen years here in the US were added to the to go pile-not by me-but don't want to accuse my other half either) and am noticing some of them are different from my cds with added or changed tracks. I guess I just assumed years ago when buying the cds I was getting what was on the original albums and such.
I'm getting frustrated!!! HELP ME!!!!!
While I am at it--I would love some advice. If you were trying to play an album to get people that love heavier rock stuff to pay attention to it--which album would you play? I am determined to get these friends of mine to take Sweet serious!!!!

Why couldn't they just make an album an album no matter what country these
released it in? 
they may not be as hard rockin as the other 2 but there is
still some good stuff on them that aren't heard that often.
