I was just listening to disc 2 of the Fully Loaded album the other day,
and I noticed that of all the demo versions of the Loaded songs, the
one that sounds most unlike its album version is I Found a Reason.
Personally, I like this country-style version a LOT better than the one
that actually made it to record. I don't know who's playing the
harmonica on this (Lou?), but it's fantastic, and the lo-fi recording
sound gives it that great rustic old country feel. Excellent
finger-picking guitar as well.
The album version is okay, but it's a bit too slow and the "spoken"
verse sounds silly.
Any thoughts?
