Dale had a class recording project coming up, so a plan was hatched to get the band to record with Dale for his project. The song was recorded live on [[April 15]], 1993 with no overdubs. The track was later delegated to the [[DGC Rarities, Vol. 1]] album, a move which took convincing from A&R man Todd Sullivan; they were concerned that their "rarity" might not be up to snuff sonically. Todd reminded them that the feel was amazing, and the world had to hear this recording. Dale Johnson recalls: "I guess the guys were happy with the LMU version of 'Jamie,' but I never entirely was completely satisfied. I mean, there's only so much you can do with a live take and only a few hours! Rivers seemed to be really amazed when I told him I only got a B+ on the project. 'But it's gonna be on a CD, man...!' I remember [[Matt Sharp|Matt]] being really adamant that they would do the recording project with me, but that they had to own the master. Smart boys, they were, and I agreed to it. I just really wanted to be credited with the recording.}} | ||
[[Matt Sharp]] also wrote a song for Young (which Cuomo helped to record) titled "[[Mrs. Young]]," which was later reworked into "[[Please Let That Be You]]" from [[the Rentals]]' debut album, ''[[Return of the Rentals]]''. | [[Matt Sharp]] also wrote a song for Young (which Cuomo helped to record) titled "[[Mrs. Young]]," which was later reworked into "[[Please Let That Be You]]" from [[the Rentals]]' debut album, ''[[Return of the Rentals]]''. |
