First I just have to open with this "It was a show about Vietnam and he played a soldier in Vietnam who was prone to throw hand grenades at his superior officers. "


A LMAO moment if there ever was one.

Second, thank you so so SO much for writing this. I was curious about the whole acquisition since the day you shared it with us (especially since I contemplated trying to find those demos myself someday). While the poor quality of some of the demos was really disappointing It was a moment of true joy to hear them. And the good quality of the others was both surprising and rockin, lol. Probably the most special thing shared with the community since the Batman Demos and the occasional Scaramouche gem.

I actually spent a few days trying to fix up the audio hiss on Deserve Matinee and Evening, as well as getting the music clips separated but I dont know how good the quality is comparatively and if its worth sharing. Removing hiss without professional programs isnt the best, I just used Audacity.

I really hope Jim will share good quality versions of these unreleased songs someday. Especially Come in the Night (the entire thing and not just Ted Neeley/Meat Loaf's Revels Begin portion.) Either that or maybe our buddy Scaramouche will do some kind of take on it... hint hint.

Thanks again Mr. Miller!!
