Remember Two Things is an album by Dave Matthews Band, released independently on the band's Bama Rags label in 1993. This was the only release where the band was referred to as "The Dave Matthews Band." It was reissued by RCA Records on June 24, 1997 and was certified platinum by the RIAA in 2002. [1] The album cover art is a stereogram which, when focused on correctly, shows a person's hand displaying a peace sign. It was created by two former UVA students in Charlottesville: Rick Kwiatkowski and Jeff Smith. [2] The two things referred to in the title are said to be "love your mother" and "leave only footprints."[by whom?]

Song notes

Jane is Dave Matthews' little sister, and "The Song That Jane Likes" is thus named after her. In concerts, Dave will often preface the song by saying "I've got a little sister named Jane, this is the song that Jane likes."

The first six songs are full-band live recordings. "Minarets" and "Seek Up" are full-band studio recordings, and "I'll Back You Up" and "Christmas Song" are Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds live acoustic recordings. Dave has been cited as saying that "I'll Back You Up" was recorded in a closet near a bathroom, and the version on the album is the one "with no flushing sounds in it."

Ants Marching and Tripping Billies were recorded at The Muse in Nantucket, MA on August 17, 1993. Recently was recorded at The Flood Zone in Richmond, VA on August 10, 1993. ^[4]
