“Taylor's first lo-fi solo project to make it out of the basement, Slightly Used, was distributed at C-Stone '94, and the fans who have the rarity—under 200 were ever made—still comment to Taylor that the cassette-only recording is one of their all-time favorites.”

“'Already Forgotten The Name' will remind fans of Slightly Used, Taylor's Dylan-influenced demo session cassette that surfaced at the 1994 Cornerstone Festival.”
