Information
Shortly after Lockjaw was founded in February 1997,[2] the label released this compilation, which included the first commercial Muse recording, an early version of Twin. The recording came from a recording session at Coombeshead Studios, Newton Abbot in late 1996. As well as Balloonatic, Muse recorded another ten songs found on the Newton Abbot demo.
Shortly afterwards, then Muse manager Phil Korthals asked Lockjaw if they would sign Muse to release Muse's first single. Lockjaw declined, due to having just started and thus having insufficient funds to do so.[2] Korthals' name can be seen on the compilation's insert.[3]
