Daydream B-Liver

Daydream B-Liver is an outtakes compilation released by UWEB. It's a follow up to Liver Music, which collected various live and 'liver' tracks. This compilation is entirely focused more-so on covers and alternate versions of Residents tracks.
==Background==
This album was released by Residents fan club UWEB. The previous year the label had put out Liver Music, a compilation of live and 'liver' tracks, liver being a studio performance dressed up to sound live. Daydream B-Liver is instead a collection of unreleased covers by the band, (mostly the leftovers of the abandoned American Composers series) as well as live tracks. The only live (non-cover) track is The Boarding House, with All Tha Freaks, Plains To Mexico & Wistful Break being Liver studio performances.
The compilation covers the band's entire 20 year history, with tracks dating from October of 1971 to then present day 1991.

== Liner Notes ==
* "Daydream In Space": 1985, a mish-mash of seemingly oddities, including a tip of the top hat to Sun Ra and Barry White. Compiled by the band for this project.
* "Dog Glue": 1989, a snippet from the music used behind the "Baby King" stories on the album "The King And Eye."
* "Dear Brother," "Pictures Of Life's Other Side," "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry": 1986, The Hank Williams Death And Despair Trilogy In Waltz Time, three lost tracks from the "Stars And Hank" sessions. Written by Hank Williams.
* "A Live Radio Broadcast," "The Boarding House," "King Kong": 1971, Before There Was Snakefinger There Was P.C. Lithman - Before There Was The Un-Named Band There Was A Band With No Name - Before There Was Time And Space There Was N. Senada. "Cantaten und Symphonen for der Saxophonen und Violinen" and other unspecified pieces written by N. Senada. Thanks to P.C. "Snakefinger" Lithman for the imaginative talking, sawing violin, and plucking guitar with great enthusiasm on the 1971 recordings.
* "All Tha Freaks": 1990, a bit of playfulness during the recording sessions for "Freak Show."
* "From The Plains To Mexico": 1990: this is the original recording which was released only as a seven inch single included in a Italian lyrics book. Much moodier than the later arrangements on Cube-E.
* "Wistful Break,": 1990.
* "Burning Love,": 1990, this recording of a loose rehearsal for a live German TV show is a completely different up-beat arrangement, unlike later versions that appeared on "The King And Eye" and Cube-E projects.
* "Daydream Believer": 1991, The Monkees's hit single is severely reworked here and was recorded especially for this project. Written by John Stewart.
