I remember hearing about this before, actually. In fact, there was some speculation that a clause was introduced limiting the amount of Lee songs that could be contributed to a Sonic Youth LP. Probably exaggeration, but will be interested to read more about this.

I haven't heard about any such clause about how many songs Lee can contribute. But I know Lee had a big problem with them not including Genetic on Dirty. If I remember correctly, in the Confusion Is Next book, it's stated that Lee almost left the band over this. I guess they got in a huge argument about it, and it almost destoyed the group. Crazy.
