These demos have been released many times before but this is the best package yet. It contains the usual 18 tracks plus an extra 3 tracks that were previously available only on Evil Dolls and New York Tapes. Hootchie Cootchie Man is the one track missing from this disc (copyright reasons perhaps??) but you can live without it. The sound is better than the previous releases with sharper mids and highs and much less muddy bass.
Liner notes are by Marty Thau, the Dolls original manager. He tells the story of how the Dolls were discovered and what a kick ass band they were. There are a couple of new photographs including a great cover shot of Johnny.
You probably already have these demos on one of the many bootleg discs but it's worth picking up this CD to get the complete set. If you don't have these demos then definitely buy this CD and crank it up to full blast.
