Default Cecelia Demo

I know that people refer to this as a Tusk demo, but how exactly do we know that?

I swear I hear Sharon singing backup on the demo that I have.

Does anyone have any background info on this song?

I put on my site that it was a Tusk demo because on a 1979 live version of "Sisters of the Moon" she sings Cecilia lyrics at the end. Of course she could have re-recorded it with Sharon.

Well didn't Stevie record a lot of Tusk demos w/ Sharon (like Sara) and then the band cut Sharon out?

That's funny because on the demo I have I only hear multi-track layers of Stevie's voice. I'll have to go back and listen to it. I love "Cecelia" she should polish it up and release it on a F.M. or solo album.

The version I have is the master reel-to-reel. Its about 8 minutes long (I think) and is just her, Sharon, and Lori. Its very simple- not very much instrumentation at all- I think there's bass, maybe a little guitar....

I don't know how many versions there are
