    Ultimately a fans-only release, "Demolition" is exactly as scattershot as you'd expect a collection of demos to be: a few memorable tracks and a few more mediocre ones.

  1. 'Demolition' may be a rare example of purely commercial dictates - namely, what was doubtless a label decision to downsize from a threatened four-CD boxed set - improving the art in question.

    Depending what side you take in the Heartbreaker v. Gold debate, you'll like some tracks more than others. [Oct 2002, p.92]
  3. The ballads, many recorded with steel guitarist Bucky Baxter, are much better than the rockers.
