So what are the Ritual songs that were written before they got signed by Warner Bros? I have forgotten some of these details over the years.

They had all ritual songs played in 1987 tour, except Been Caught, Of Course and Obvious.

Probably only Been Caught and Of Course came from RDLH sessions. Obvious should come from early days idea.

A 30+ career (concerts, albums, tours, fame, money...) based on a couple of year of creative work. Not bad.

Yeah, Obvious was played live as far back as Sept '88. BCS and Of Course weren't played live until Ritual was recorded (both debuted at the 7/7/90 Mt. Baldy show, I believe), but were both rough ideas kicking around prior to the sessions.
No One's Leaving, Ted, and Maceo were written in the window between signing to WB and recording NS. I've pimped it here before many times, but the JA recording history I typed up 18 years ago is pretty informative for this stuff: http://defgav.com/sdw/recording/

What career?

Career artists keep putting out quality material and playing in-demand tours.

Jane's has been a legacy act playing at 4pm on the festival circuit for damn near 20 years.

9001st. Someone should do one of those elimination charts so we can vote on all the songs and watch it get to Then She Did vs Three Days...
