Gish was recorded to analog 16-track. To cut costs, each instrument was
recorded separately - drums, bass, then guitars, etc.
It is my guess that Why Am I So Tired is a Gish outtake/jam, based on the
stereophonic division and the general feel of the song. Jesus Loves His
Babies was a Gish outtake, and almost a B-side. A version of Smiley may
have been recorded during this session. Purr Snickety might have been
recorded at this time, rather than during the Siamese sessions.
