Erik Braunn - 1973 MCA Demos Part One

Описание: This is part of a 15 song demo Erik cut back in 1973 for MCA Records. I'm assuming he had the intention of going solo with this studio venture, but a year later he contacted Ron Bushy (or vise versa) and they reformed Iron Butterfly. Most of the songs on this demo would be considered folk rock.

But there are three songs that were supposedly recorded with members from Little Feat (don't ask me which ones because the info on that is extremely vague). Those songs are Hard Miseree, Am I Down, and Scorching Beauty. Yep, you Iron Butterfly fans read correctly, those are demo versions that would later be re-recorded in 74 and 75 for the Scorching Beauty and Sun & Steel albums. Those songs feature great horn sections, organ work, bass and drums (I'm assuming that those guys would be the members from Little Feat, IF that rumor is even true). So watch out for those in the future.

So to start off I have three songs for you:

Love is on Your Mind

Back Home

Don't Give It Up

All songs are presumably written by Erik Braunn. Erik, of course, plays all guitars, while session musicians fill in the rest. At least that's what I'm guessing.

So enjoy these rare demos and stay tuned as I eventually post the rest of that 1973 15 song demo, as well as a 5 song demo Erik Braunn cut in 1988.

Thank you all for staying tuned and being patient!
