Homegrown

In May 2001 Cooking Vinyl UK released a CD called Homegrown, featuring the demo versions of the Wasp Star: Apple Venus 2album tracks. The beautful insert, with it's clever reworking of the orginal sleeve art, contains track notes by Andy and Colin.

This release, however, goes a little further than the Apple Venus Vol 1's Homespun companion. In some cases, such as 'I'm the Man Who Murdered Love", and "Standing In For Joe", there are two or more demos tracing the genesis of the track
