Like the previous Suitcase, each song here (yep, 100 of them) has been credited to a different band name, depending on the players involved. The recordings featured here date all the way back to the late 70's and are as current as Spring 2005. Demos, full band, live in the studio, discarded finished tracks, sketches of ideas... they are all here. Looking for the germ of the idea behind "Teenage FBI"? It's here. How about the original "I Am Decided" song that Ms. Kim Deal borrowed for the Amps record? Oh yes.. . . They're all here, and if I do say so, they are sooo good. And don't worry folks, Ben Zing, Modular Dance Units (M.D.U.) and The Fake Organisms make appearances as well.
