Notes:
This CD contains the Demo-Recordings of the Musical "Alice", recorded in Hamburg,
Germany, 1992. The origins of these studio recordings (which were never meant to be released)
are unknown, but "apparently" the tapes might have been stolen from Waits' car in late 1992 ;o))

The "PMS" version contains four more tracks (24, 26, 27, 28) than the 74 min bootleg CD "Alice: The Original Demos". t08 is a shorter version of t06. However, the four extra tracks are not taken from a "studio" source, they were actually recorded during cast rehearsals with a mic on stage or from the audience.

Reworked version of most of these demos has been officially released in 2002 under the title "Alice" (ANTI/EPITAPH 86632-2).


Keys:
* Reworked version of the song has been officially released on CD "Alice" (?2002 ANTI/EPITAPH 86632-2).
** Same version (take & mix) has been officially released on CD "Alice" (?2002 ANTI/EPITAPH 86632-2).
*** Unreleased

t02, t18, t25 are instrumental pieces and have been released in the official 2002 CD "Alice" but NOT in their instrumental form (that's why I considered them as "unreleased"). The three pieces will give the songs "Fish & Bird", "No one knows i'm gone" and "Barcarolle".

Flaw:
there's a 0.5sec gap at 0:21 of t25 "Untitled" (this is on original, it is also on "Alice: The Original Demos")
