"Turn Out the Lights" (Demo) by Harry Nilsson

 

A bonus track from Buddha's release of Pussy Cats, this is Harry Nilsson's stripped down demo of a song which finally appeared on the Duit on Mon Dei album. Far from the exuberant, steel-drum-laden version, the demo is more of a quirky lullaby. This version is from the two-inch tapes of these sessions. On the multi-tracks, "Turn Out the Lights" was one of five songs from this period from which Harry's vocal had been mysteriously wiped. (Source: Curtis Armstrong)
