When only "[[Hash Pipe]]" made the cut for ''[[The Green Album]]'', fans of the songs started a petition demanding the release of studio versions. | When only "[[Hash Pipe]]" made the cut for ''[[The Green Album]]'', fans of the songs started a petition demanding the release of studio versions. | ||
Pleasantly surprised, and in response to the fan involvement, Rivers personally created an "official" ten-song album track listing that featured trimmed and rearranged versions of the SS2K songs. The alterations were accomplished with digital editing. Having been over a year since the songs were recorded, Rivers felt that he was able to determine better song structures, and wanted the ''definitive'' versions to be released. The source material for this project were demos and live recordings done in the summer of 2000. On [[November 17]], [[2001]], the songs were given to the fan site www.summersongs2k.com for distribution.<ref>[[Karl's Corner - 11/18/2001]]</ref> | Pleasantly surprised, and in response to the fan involvement, Rivers personally created an "official" ten-song album track listing that featured trimmed and rearranged versions of the SS2K songs.

{{Karl Koch quote|they were edited as per rivers direct instructions. those are the correct versions of the songs. you see, it doesnt matter what versions you or anyone *prefers*, because those edits are the structures that would be used on a record if they had made it to a record. And yeah, it was a ton of work! But rivers had finally sorted out what he felt was wrong with them, [he never was fully satisfied with them in 2000] and wanted the correct versions out there. So its out of respect for his wishes as the songwriter that you should explain that those versions are in fact the right ones.|[[2001]]}} | {{Karl Koch quote|they were edited as per rivers direct instructions. those are the correct versions of the songs. you see, it doesnt matter what versions you or anyone *prefers*, because those edits are the structures that would be used on a record if they had made it to a record.
