I'm pretty sure that it has been said in the past by Meat that the record company took MATLAF away and released it before they were done with it. It would explain alot. It also seems that Meat has never had a lot of songs to choose from for any album as there is generally not a lot left over for B sides.
CHSIB had more than most. I mean like BAT OUT HELL surely would have had a few more songs to choose from but I guess not. It doesn't even look like they recorded MTYD for the album.
I wonder if this has more to do with Meat hating the studio, Steinman, when they worked together not writing very much, or a lack of financial backing to get some highpriced help. Maybe a combination of everything.
The only song that I think was totally lost was DATE WITH DESTINY. That could;ve been a huge hit for Meat.
