Rough jams that Peter and Stan worked on. Tracks 01, 03-05 were the second batch of songs demoed by Lips, during a session paid for by Kama Sutra records. While it is not know when precisely these demos were recorded, they were recorded as a group at Bell Sound Studios. According to Stan, "A few weeks later we did another five... Little did we know that eight years later Neil would be president of Casablanca records, and most of these sessions would later be released on Peter's first solo album" (SP).
Tracks 02, 07-10 would be the only recording of Lips as a quartet with Peter Criss (Drums/Percussion/Vocals), Stan Penridge (Guitars/Vocals), Michael Benvenga (Bass/Vocals), and John Amato (Rhythm Guitar). John was a session player used specifically on this session at RCA Studios on February 22, 1972, according to Stan Penridge (From the "KISS & Related Recordings Focus, © 2007 - Julian Gill).
