| Notes: |
Recorded on 4-Track in Bill Gould's attic as a demonstration of Mike Patton for Faith No More's management and their record company (Slash). Two copies of this tape exist, dubbed directly from the 4-Track by Bill onto tapes with pre-existing music on them. This copy was sold on eBay in September 2006 after being found in a Hollywood, CA thrift shop in a box of other music industry demo tapes along with a copy of Mr Bungle's 4th demo "OU818" and 4 photos of Mike Patton taken in a Photo Vending Machine. These are rough versions of the songs, most likely played live into the 4-Track. The music and lyrics are early versions and contain many differences from the final recordings. The exact timing of the recording is unknown but FNM's first gig with Patton was in Nov 1988 and so this recording was probably made before that. This is the missing link between Mike Patton in Mr. Bungle and Mike Patton in Faith No More and is a must for all collectors.
