Live at a Sloan Party!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Live at a Sloan Party! was a rare album release by Sloan; it was released in the United States in 1996 as a bonus album to March Records' release of One Chord to Another.

Although the album is called Live at a...Party, and background noises and conversations between the songs suggest that the album was recorded during a party attended by Sloan and friends (including Jennifer Pierce from the band Jale), the four members of Sloan now admit that the album was recorded in a studio. The background noises were in fact recorded at a party where Sloan and friends were present, but the noises were simply dubbed over the music.

Sloan got the idea for the "Party album," as it is known amongst their fans, from a similar release by The Beach Boys.
