early w.a.s.p. demos

[John]

my buddy found this on youtube today. the earliest demo of school daze with a real bass player. i like this version, musically, better than the album version. the bass player, Rik Fox comments in the comments section too, so be sure to read the comments section!




Rik Fox facebook post: For anyone interested, here's what the original version of School Daze by WASP sounded like from the demo we recorded on April 12,1982, with my original bass lines. Jazzy, swinging, swaggering...I was subconsciously channeling Dennis Dunaway and Gene Simmons. ("yeah, Rik couldn't cut it"-- Tony Richards) 😂
And incidentally, that's Randy Piper singing lead.
