I also read in the new Carol Clerk book that the producers and management wanted to remove this fantastic song from the original track listing of Peace and Love.

Well, there's not much to say except that you're correct on both counts. I've always been drawn to mythology, especially where rivers and/or oceans are involved. The Lorelei is the siren whose beautiful song lures mariners to their death on the rocks of the river Rhine.
But we played Ludo and watched TV sometimes also.
