Register to view links, I have included an extra Natural Thing demo and Little Girl demo too (much better quality than the rest). Not sure if the other demos are any different from the album versions

I'll try and get the other ones uploaded from the other thread too

These are most definitely not demos (i.e. recorded at sessions prior to the album sessions)... not sure the source, but they are clearly the released tracks, just with a ton of hiss and noise as if they are many-generation cassette dubs.

Even "Little Girl" is the actual Journey track used on Dream After Dream, minus the orchestral stuff that was added later.

So that is not the released version then, right?

Yes, I believe it is a different take too. Some of the other tracks in the demos are missing effects too like the doubling. So they are technically demos but very close to complete
