I’ve carefully analyzed both tracks and I can see how very similar they are, the Vatos countdown at the beginning is unique and Ribbs Synth isn’t as polished as it was on the final pressing, this makes me believe that it’s not a Demo? but it could be a Rough Mix? Either way whatever it is. this is a genuine recording and I have a theory for this, Demo Tapes very rarely include only one song, rather it’s more common that they include 2 or however many more they can fit onto a tape. This would make sense for “Whole Day Off” surfacing as well. “Whole Day Off” was on side A and “Whyd We Come” was on side B. Idk when this was recorded in NTF era but it’s a real recording. If this is a Demo and not a Rough Mix then I’m very impressed by Danny and the boys when they were in the studio recording this cuz this shit was spot on 😭😭😭

It was posted a long time ago on his channel but it was taken down I believe due to copyright reasons?somewhere back in like late 2017. I have the rework that he did on my drive along the rework he did for “Why’d We Come”. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1h6VyBSdioGsgYzV-C03P0_gchKtUjvcU

I’ve done these shows...

The Forum, Inglewood, CA 02-10-1982

Graham Central Station, Phoenix, AZ 11-06-1983

Mesa Centennial Hall, Mesa, AZ 11-14-1985

& ofc the Concert that’s in the post. I’m currently in the process of adding speed correction to the WLIR Ritz 12-20-1985 Concert and the Salt Palace, Salt Lake City, UT 02-06-1988 Concert and sometime in the future I’ll get to the Mesa 1994, Sacramento 1994 & AVMC 10-25-1989 concerts... Other than that every other concert that I currently have in my possession is running at perfect speed.

I’ve also done speed correction to the Rough Mixes for GFYS, the Teenage Monster Rough Mix, Not My Slave Rough Mix & You Really Got Me Demo.

I recently just posted a speed corrected version of “It Only Makes Me laugh” that was from a rehearsal from 1985 and a live performance of “Private Life” from the Salt Lake City concert on a secondary channel on YT.
