A double-CD collection of DEVO demos from 1978 to 1986 which was released as a mail-order-only item from Rhino Handmade in a limited edition of 5000. The record features several songs that were previously unheard, and a decision was made that the record would not repeat material that had previously been bootlegged. Of particular interest is a demo version of the whole Freedom of Choice album.
