They "feel" more RA than PRAMG, so you best not include them anyway.

How does a song that was never released count as a money grab?
It doesn't it. However, it's in that PRAMG era, so it qualifies.

Songs that are PRAMG but feel RA

They "feel" plenty close to S/T to me. What do feeling have to do with it anyways? I'm into facts, man. Facts.

Agreed completely. I'm not including it on my list because it seems so blatantly obvious that it shouldn't be part of that body of work.
I honestly have a tough time lumping S/T into the PRAMG. It strikes me as their attempt at making a classic rock album, which is fine, and makes sense given where they were at the time. It's the last two albums that feel really hollow to me.
I agree. I like S/T, but not the two after. However, the board has spoken, it's referred to as PRAMG; but I do like to think of it as PAMG (post avocado money grab).

While we're at it, I've always hated the "Post Riot Act Money Grab" label.

I never felt like it was a money grab as much as U2-grab. I felt like they wanted to be one of the Big Bands again, but I don't know if it necessarily had much to do with money.
