"Sweet Old World Demos and CBS demos"

After some discussion re legitimacy of torrenting this here, & as a kind of
companion piece to nicklem's upload last week of the alternate 'Car Wheels On a
Gravel Road', here's an alternate version of 'Sweet Old World' *plus* Lucinda's
unreleased CBS demos.

This set goes under various names and the two items on it are assigned various
recording dates.

Tracks 1-7 are 7 of the 9 tracks that were recorded as demos for CBS in 1986.
The missing tracks are "Come On & Give Me Another Chance" and another
take/version of 'Passionate Kisses'.

Tracks 8-19 are sometimes referred to as (and this collection is sometimes traded
as) the 'RCA version of Sweet Old World', but this seems certainly a mistake.
There *was* an unreleased RCA album recorded in 1986/1987 (?) but this isn't it
(though it contains some of the same songs). These tracks are also frequently
referred to as the SOW 'Demos', which is perfectly possible. The recording date
given is 1991/1992.

If anyone has more detailed info, please advise.
