Vanessa Daou - Zipless: Bootleg Rehearsal Tapes (2015)

"Zipless" was my turning gay album. I played the tape so much I wore it out and then I bought what I think was one of two CD albums that found their way to Poland. Then I bought another one and gave it away to a fuck buddy who was really good but not THAT good. And now the demoes for the album are out and they are completely different. It's all live jazz instruments while the album ended up being slick electronica.

Imagine that whatever your favourite album ever is, be it "Confessions" or "Rhythm Of Love" or I don't know fucking "Purpose" and you've loved it for YEARS and suddenly all the demoes are officially released and they are a totally different album. A bit like those demoes of "Confessions"... but way, way more back. A bit like "Rebel Heart (Demo 4)" times fifteen. This is what I just got today and what I am going to overplay until the, uh, iTunes files wear out. And I have two of them for some reason so if I wear out the iTunes files, then I will continue to wearing out one of the CDs and I will still have the other.
