One of the rarer albums released by Tiger Lily Records, only two copies are known to exist.

[1] As the release of a tax scam label, the album came with minimal documentation beyond songwriting credits and claims that the songs had been published by a company owned by Charles Koppelman and Martin Bandier.

[2] Record collector Scott Blackerby discovered the album in 2011 and diagnosed it as a composite created from unpublished demo tracks, based on the multiplicity of songwriters, the fact that some of the tracks sounded unfinished, and the differing musical styles involved.

This was confirmed in 2013, when Dan Chapman, friend of one of the credited writers, Dennis Wilkerson contacted Blackerby.

Many years later Wilkerson had been contacted by a record collector in Europe who had obtained a copy of Made From Plate and was trying to track down the songwriters.
