Rock / Pop Album Trivia (Hope y'all haven't already done this?)
Something I always found interesting, was when an album's title song doesn't appear on that album, but is released later (or even earlier) on another album, single, compilation, etc. If you wanna play, name the album and where the title song appeared. Add any other details you care to. Since there probably aren't all that many of these, only post one per day (to give others a chance to play).
Iron Butterfly's bassist Lee Dorman died yesterday, so I'll dedicate my choice to him (though he doesn't play on this song).
After a 4 year absence, Iron Butterfly reformed (in 1975) with the album Scorching Beauty, however, the title song appears on the following (and last studio) LP Sun and Steel.

Mike, great thread.
Led Zeppelin's Houses off the Holly does not appear on the LP Houses of the Holy. The song is featured on their sixth studio LP Physical Graffiti.

Indeed it does not! I knew we'd see this one fairly quickly. :)

Thanks, Worm! That's a new (or, at least long forgot) one on me!
The clue I gave earlier, was for THE DOORS. There album "Waiting for the Sun" did not include the title song, which turned up two albums later on "Morrison Hotel".

Only 2 of you have an example? OK, I'll post another.
Queen's "Sheer Heart Attack" did not make the album of the same name, but was featured three albums later on "News of the World".

I'm gonna run out of these 'fore long! :laugh:
Emerson, Lake & Palmer's song "Brain Salad Surgery" did not make the final cut of the album. It was released on a promo only flexi-disc (below), at the same time, but didn't turn up on a commercial disc till 3 years later when it was issued as the "B" side of the "Fanfare for the Common Man" single from the album "Works V1". BSS was next released on the "leftovers" album "Works V2" a year later.

You beat me to it. i was going to say the doors when i first seen this first. i think the "waiting for the sun" is the best example.
Although I don't have a picture to post of White Zombie's LPs, my example is:
White Zombie's: Soul Crusher. The song does not appear on the album.
The song Soul Crusher, however does appear later on their third studio LP:
La Sexorcisto: Devil music, vol. 1. Maybe I can locate a video to coincide
with song(s) and LPs?

I agree! That's the first one that popped into my head.

Good one! I forgot about AC/DC's if you want blood
Nobody has anymore? I have one or two more to post...
Here's another AC/DC. Their first LP was "High Voltage" but the title song was not released until it was included on their 2nd LP "TNT". Those albums were both Aus. only releases. Their first international album release was again titled "High Voltage" and contained songs from the 2 Aus. albums, including the song "High Voltage".

My mistake. That one was given to me by a friend.
THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME is the only
LED ZEP album I've never owned. Were my other entries wrong? Sorry to annoy you.
How 'bout this one:
