"Sudden Fun" was originally prepared for release in 1995 under the title "Fremont" and featured Wic (William Ireland Coleman) on bass.
When released in 1997, "Song For Mary" was retitled "Corduroy", "Falling Out" was replaced by "Long Long Time" and Matt had re-recorded the bass parts himself.
Zack Schaffer played bass for some live performances in 1997 per San Francisco Examiner.

1994 Dec 23 - Los Angeles Times - page F37 and
page F38 - "Seeking Pearls, He Finds a Gem: Drummer Josh Freese made a
bid to join rock's hottest-selling band" by Mike Boehm
from the article: "Another thing I'm excited about is a commercial alternative band called Slider. They've just finished their album for A&M Records and it's coming out in the fall.
It's incredible songwriting. The main person in the band is Matt Winegar; he's been a friend and associate of mine and Primus' for several years. He co-produced Primus' first album when he was 18 years old,
and he was in a band on Geffen called Spent Poets. Matt is finally doing his own project, and he's got a trio of incredible musicians and songwriters.They're working with David Bianco
who just did the Teenage Fanclub record. Everyone at A&M is excited about it."
