Description:

Dream Theater's 20th official bootleg is a demo of their debut album "Wen Dream and Day Unite" Dream Theater has been periodically releasing their treasured live, demo, and studio outtakes as official bootlegs in the "Lost Not Forgotten Archives" series. The 20th volume in the "Lost Not Forgotten Archives" series is a collection of live, demo, studio outtakes and other treasured recordings released regularly as official bootlegs. The 20th volume in the series is a demo of their memorable debut album "Wen Dream and Day Unite" released in 1989. This 2-disc studio session collection includes instrumental and vocal pre-production demos of the original songs that were being arranged for the debut album, as well as gift recordings for friends.This is the only record of songwriting during Charlie Dominici's tenure, who would leave the band after only one album and a handful of shows. The demos include unreleased songs that were not included on the album, a rare demo of Charlie singing "To Live Forever" and covers of Beatles and Christmas songs, and can be regarded as a valuable collection of demos by the young band just before their debut. The album was previously released on their own Ytsejam Records label on a limited production basis, and now it has been reissued with the latest mastering and new artwork.
