| Think Jim probably drives everyone nutty in the studio from Rink to Meat to Bonnie, to the record execs watching the budget, but you can't argue with the results. There were only four 'new' songs on Bat 2, and I doubt there are many 'demos'. I think Lemon was written/developed during the recording sessions, and Objects was written at the very last minute, so stand alone demos, done 'previously' for those, probably don't exist. Anything For Love was offered to ELO 2 back in 1990, so obviously a demo exists for that? Who by? Could be Jim or Rory; don't think he was using Kyle Gordon back then. Did Rinkoff say in Atlanta that Kyle has demoed Body? That would be cool to hear, or anything with a Jim vocal. Or anything at all in fact. Probably gonna be at least another year for a Bat Cast or Concept album, and god knows about TDE. > He blogged about his unique piano sound that he perfected > with rinkoff - but said that it dated back to the 1970 > Dream Engine Demos, and perhaps is most prominent in the > demo of Making Love Out Of Nothing At All. > > I find this intresting... > > I thought Jim didn't understand demo's - thats why they > performed BAT live when shopping it around.
