I know right? SpyNote would you mind elaborating on this a little more? It's widely believed that the cassettes originated from the old Rumbo Recorders which is now a banquet hall. If I recall correctly that same seller had cassettes from a bunch of other artists as well. I thought the master reels came from the auctioning off of a storage unit belonging to Modern Records?
I don't think it would be entirely off base for Stevie to name a song Priest of Nothing. Maybe she liked the title? Maybe that was the title? We all know how magical Dave is at arranging and producing Stevie's work. I'm not a fan of the demo but there is always the possibility that the finished product is quite different. I was never a fan of the Secret Love demo for instance. Never did I think she would pick that one to record. But she did and I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome.
Anyway my curiosity is piqued. This is an exciting time for us. But I don't think we should bog it down with other stuff. I don't think it's important where the demos et cetera came from, just that we got the privilege of hearing them. We went through a long dry spell with Stevie. I'm not about to look a gift horse in the mouth.
