So will we see these again on future albums? Maybe so, but for the most part these songs can stand alone as another project of the acoustic side of Rowlands that we have heard on many albums in the past. Some of these demos are newer versions of older songs, or even interesting takes on older songs like \u201cI Thought I Could\u201d (one of Rowlands albums in the 1990\u2019s was <i>I Think I Can<\/i> if you don\u2019t get the reference). This is mostly laid back, contemplative acoustic music with minimalist but effective percussion. You also get a recording of Glenn giving his Testimony near the end. These might be demos but I found them to be quite enjoyable as with all of Rowlands music.<\/p>\n[2013 Independent | Purchase: <a href=\"http:\/\/chob.org\/music\/order_cds\" target=\"_blank\">chob.org\/music\/order_cds<\/a>]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acoustic, stripped down, and rawer than we have heard Rowlands in the past, these songs are labeled as demos.
