- The Balloon Song
Early Demo Recording I had never heard before. The beginning is reminiscent of the opening of Jaco's Punk Jazz, which he recorded with Weather Report. Mostly this sounds like a jam, but you can hear a lot of later Jaco ideas in their beginning stages...
- Jaco Pastorius Plays With "little Beaver" - 1974

The Dry Cleaner From Des Moines

I keep hearing bells all around me
Jingling in the lucky jackpots
