10. If
11. Careful With That Axe, Eugene
12. Julia Dream
13. Cymbaline

RE: Early "Best Of" compilation
I did sort of this thing, based on my idea that there's only one LP's worth of decent material in Floyd's 4 (More, Ummagumma, AHM and Meddle) albums

1. One of these Days
2. Careful with that Axe Eugene
3. Green is the Colour
4. Cymbaline
5. If
6. Summer 68
7. Cirrus Minor
8. The Nile Song
9. Fearless
10. Echoes

Maybe as a bonus track, if I could fit it, Atom Heart Mother, another live Ummagumma track, and San Tropez might find their way in there, and possibly Fat Old Sun if I was feeling generous

RE: Early "Best Of" compilation
I've just made my above album to play in the car, with some minor adjustments to some of the songs and the additions of "Grantchester Meadows" & "Julia Dream".

The adjustments were pretty much cutting intros and outros shorter and adding new fade-ins and fade-outs.
