Recordings was released in 2001, not long after Lightbulb Sun.  It was limited to 20,000 copies and sold out as the band became more popular.  Mostly composed of outtakes from the Lightbulb Sun and Stupid Dream recording sessions, Recordings became the favorite of some fans.  And single copies have been sold for hundreds of dollars …
