Marr co-wrote the music to "Lowdown" and "Too Far Gone" during the '93 session with Ian McCulloch, (but did not play on these versions).
According to a Marr interview from Sept '95, he also co-wrote "Never", though he isn't credited for it.
A couple of other songs from that session have also appeared:
"Nothing Lasts Forever" from the "Evergreen" album by Echo And The Bunnymen.
and
"On Top Of The World" football anthem '98 (CD5: 414 570 204-2 reached #9 on the UK charts)

The material from the '93 session Marr & Mac did together supposedly vanished from a courier van, though some say it may have been conveniently "lost" due to either one or both of them not being happy with the material.
