The Special Goodness can trace its roots back to 1994, when Wilson made a seven-track demo tape under the name [[Suburban Advantage]]. Using a Dr. Rhythm drum machine (set to the TR-808 kit), it was his first concerted attempt at a quality demo of his own material. | The Special Goodness can trace its roots back to 1994, when Wilson made a seven-track demo tape under the name [[Suburban Advantage]].

In late 1995, amidst various ''[[Pinkerton]]'' sessions, Wilson found the time to record no less than three different demos as [[Huge Guy]]. These recordings evolved directly into the early 1996 sessions for his debut, ''[[The Special Goodness (album)|The Special Goodness]]''. | In late 1995, amidst various ''[[Pinkerton]]'' sessions, Wilson found the time to record no less than three different demos as [[Huge Guy]].
