It's pretty bottom-of-the-barrel stuff, unfortunately: basically,
these are some songs that Peter and Will demoed after Gene left the
band following THE SOUND OF MUSIC. The songs aren't that great, and
they're basically just unfinished demos. Good for fans, but don't
expect to be bowled over by it.
Are you familiar with RIDE THE WILD TOM-TOM? That's a collection of
very early single sides and demos that's far more worthwhile an
investment. "We Should Be In Bed" alone is worth the couple of bucks
you'll pay for it used.
