Demos, volume 1

"Demos, Vol. 1 reveals aspects of his creative process, collecting lo-fi home-recorded first passes and half-cooked instrumental sketches of the songs that ended up on 2 and Salad Days, along with other various odds and ends. In some cases the demos aren't terrifically far removed from the versions that ended up on the albums ... Demos, Vol. 1 is a fantastic look into the songwriter's laid-back writing process, with each song feeling tossed-off and lighthearted. Some of the results are far more enjoyable than others, but such is the nature of the low-key demo".
