Stuart Source: 1993 12 Demon Flower Roughs T2 Cassette
One of the requests we field here at True Believers is for live versions of b-sides – particularly the ones that ended up on the Mutations b-sides album. The problem is that only a handful of the tracks on Mutation ever got played live! What we do have, though, is some demos…
So here we have an early demo version of The Trade Off, a song that was left off the Demon Flower album but appeared on the Easy CD single. It’s a great track. Why was it left off Demon Flower, anyway?
PS. Imagine our frustration when we found a Demon Flower live recording which listed “Too Good Looking”, but the tape cut out before the song was due to appear in the set list.

I really enjoyed the keys brought higher in the mix, it added another dynamic to the song.
The lack of Too Good Looking is a true shame. Such an intense song.
