Notes

Hissing of Summer Lawns Acoustic Demos
Unreleased Studio Recordings

Often packaged with filler on bootleg versions, these are the demos only and they sound wonderful. I have included as a bonus the song "Hunter (The Good Samaritan)" originally scheduled for "Blue" here, because it is the only track from "The Original Blue" that was never released. "Dreamland" later appeared on Don Juan's Reckless Daughter" in a studio version, but the stripped -down version here is expecially appealing.
