Anybody know much background info (who played on it, when/where/why recorded, etc) on the songs on disc 2 of AFN/NFA? Especially: Who Knows, We Know the Night, Portland, Rolling Pin, 'Track 18'.

portland is tha mats ealry version of talent show recorded in nyc i beleive, scrapped sessions cause they hated the label picked producer, who knows is a demo, they all play on it, and like a rolling pin is the mats , and the "bob, com'on in and play guitar" is paul asking bob dylan to come back and play guitar on it, he was recording next door, and took a beer from their stash but then tommy told him to fuck off before he knew who he was....there's seveeral takes on what happen, not sure which is true..like a rolling pin was also on "dont buy or sell, it's crap" promo stuff for all shook down, had demoes from the sessions

I thought we know the night was an all shook down outtake, but I'm not certain.

Track 18 is a demo/alt version of "I Don't Know." The best part is Paul singing to the engineer "We'd like to hear some guitar, so you can turn it up any time now."

I love this song !(the demo) I always include it on a comp cd when I'm turning someone on to the Mats because it shows how fun they could be. Anybody know why Tommy (I think) yells "Richard!" at the very end? |

I think that's a really drunk Paul saying "Richard." Damn, that song is one of my faves too. I also like when Paul sings something like "Do you wanna be my wife?" and Tommy says, "Eww!"

"Do you wanna be my wife?" and Tommy says, "Eww!" 'Aww, come on . . .' |

This will sound bizarre I'm sure but I'm always reminded of the TV show Happy Days when I hear him say Richard. On the show the mom would yell for Ritchie the same exact way. I think Tommy is doing "Mrs. C". |
