Acoustic 2

Acoustic 2 is the demo for the song Latin Simone from Gorillaz' self titled album and the 5th and final track on the Demoz LP from the Gorillaz 20th Anniversary Boxset.

Recording and Information
Acoustic 2 was written around 1999 and it's one of the first Gorillaz demos made by Damon Albarn, around the same time other demos, such as Hand Clapper and Bill Murray were also being written. Albarn used the same machine to record the demos for the tracks from the Blur album 13, such as I Got Law, which would later evolve into Tomorrow Comes Today. The recording process for Latin Simone was shown on the Bananaz documentary, despite the version from the film being different than the one released on the LP.

This version consists mostly of a rough guitar and piano, both played by Damon, alongside his own vocals.
