All songs written by Grant Lee Phillips

These alternate versions represent these album tracks in their early incarnations. They were recorded in the same session that yielded "Fuzzy", "Stars & Stripes" & "Dixie Drug Store".
"Wish You Well" is arranged differently than the album version. This alternate version employs some bizarre sound effects & Paul plays piano on it as well. It also features the voice of an unnamed psychic in the bridge, uttering the words "Los Angeles has been hit", recorded months before the LA riots, the song is a strange premonition.
"Soft Wolf Tread" - This version is a very intimate, acoustic, take on the song. Joey plays some really cool shakers. It is not an "unplugged" kind of thing but a completely different approach to the song. It may be better than the album version.
"The Shining Hour" - This one is a lot spookier here. It probably would have been on the album except that we forgot that it was recorded. The arrangement is different and I like the vocals on this version more than the album.
