These are all alternate versions. Not all of them are solo acoustic, but they're more stripped down and usually without any drumming. All but one of the performances are unreleased. The one that has been released is "Freeway," from a various artists compilation album called "Live at KGSI."
As for the unreleased ones, most of them are taken from concert bootlegs. However, the first two songs and the last two are from in-person radio station appearances. (That also was the case with "Freeway.") There are very, very few Aimee Mann soundboard or FM bootlegs, so some of these are from audience boots. But I did my best to maintain quality control with the sound quality. I also used some audio editing tricks (with UVR5 and MVSEP programs) to get rid of the crowd noise and improve the mix on some songs.
Note that all of the songs are Mann originals, generally from her most recent albums at the time of the recordings. But two of the songs, "Voices Carry" and "Coming Up Close," are from her time leading the band 'Til Tuesday in the late 1980s.
This album is 50 minutes long.
