From Wikipedia (not much info about that demo)
A bootleg recording of the demo sessions for the album, titled Didn't Anybody Tell You? surfaced in 1999. It contained many unreleased songs, including "Bottleneck", "Inbetween Woman", "My Family" (played live 1989), "Money On Your Side", "Worth Waiting For" and "Dream Nation".
When asked about the bootleg, John Taylor said, "I like coming across things that I've forgotten about. That I've forgotten that we recorded. That's what's really exciting about the Didn't Anybody Tell You bootleg, because there's so many songs on there that never got finished. They just take me back to that moment. Actually, what I like about that album is that the Liberty album - when we were rehearsing it, when we were writing it was gonna be a great album. I really felt it was gonna be a great album. When we got in the studio I fell apart and the production just wasn't right. It turned out to be a very mediocre album, but at the demo stage, which is what that [bootleg] album is all about, I think there's a great album in there. Could have been great songs."

What really surprised me was how much better 'Hothead' was in demo form than the official release.

Agreed.
It would be interesting to have been a fly on the wall while these decisions were being made.

I love the demos off of Liberty. All 6 songs listed above are better, imo, than the songs that made it to the final album. It really could have been a great album if they'd done things differently, it sounds like they fiddled with it until they'd completely overworked it
