* Track 01 : "We Won't Take
It Anymore " was long
considered as a Gene Simmons 1985 "Asylum" demo. The
song was offered to British band HEAVY PETTIN' while Gene

* Track 05 : "I Have Just Begun To Fight" is often described as being an "Asylum" demo it was originally demoed in early 1979. The original demo is far superior to the generally circulating piece

VIRGIN
(who were managed by Bill Aucoin), producing an album that was never released. At the same time Gene was
demoing material
with Virgin drummer Chuck Billings. Chuck, and Virgin's guitarist, Tom
Moody.

"Animalize" (1984). Eric Carr would play drums on this
demo (in progess).
* Track 12 : While the song title is similar to a track Gene
Simmons would record in the early nineties with Silent Rage, and
release on the audio CD version of (the book) "Sex
Money KISS",
this song would be written with Mitch Weissman prior to
"Animalize" (1984), based on the main riff of
"It's Gonna Be Alright" (1982
- 1983 demo).
* Track 13 : Written before "Animalize" (1984). Eric
Carr would play drums on this demo.
* Track 14 : Recycled version of the 1975
- 1976 demo.
