The Meowstro Sings Guster's Keep It Together
(iTunes download)
Original Release Date (on KaZaA): May 6, 2003
Original Release Date (for sale): September 9, 2003
Label: Reprise Records

Originally posted on KaZaA by the band to deter piracy of Keep It Together under the (false) pretense that they were real tracks. These meow mix tracks feature the same instrumentation and backing vocals as their album counterparts, but instead of the normal lead vocals, feature Guster's in-house Meowstro, monitor engineer Matt Peskie, meowing.
