DESCRIPTION:
These are the almost "legendary" Jon and Richie wrote in Richie's mother's basement, "next to the washing machine", like they often stated in later interviews.
Most tracks feature an acoustic guitar along with vocals, on some Richie uses an electric guitar, which sounds pretty rough and edgy, but gives the songs a cool touch.
Once or twice also a keyboard appears, Tico and Alec aren't present at all here.
Out of the songs which didn't make SWW later, "Take Me Home" is my personal favourite. The lyrics in the verses are partly identical with the later recorded demo version of "I'd Die For You".
Would have loved to hear a finished version of that song.
