Review: I love this disc. It's a collection of the 4-track demos from the mid-1970s when DEVO was much more Avant-Garde and abrasive. There's still a lot of the poppier side of this stuff on this disc -- the really harsh stuff is on Volume 2. There's a lot of favorites that would be re-recorded as well as stuff that should have been on the full-blown albums, like "Uglatto" and "I'm A Potato". Anyway, this one is totally essential. Man, I love this stuff. - Rev. Syung Myung Me
