In November 2005, First Avenue released its first compilation CD celebrating 35 years of history. The 16 track CD, "Bootlegs Volume 1", is a collection of songs recorded in either the Main-room or the 7th St Entry. Most of the songs on the CD were "bootlegged", thus forming the title of the CD. "Bootlegs" was produced by Karrie Vrabel, with the liner notes written by Steve McClellan. All the proceeds of the CD go to McClellan's non-profit organization, DEMO. The goals of his organization are "to support musicians while promoting gender equity; diversity of music style and genre; diversity of musicians from local communities; careers in all stages of establishment; and the staging of performances with high production values."
