Noel Gallagher: 1989 Demo Tape (Noel's Songs)

TREON259

Noel Gallagher's pre-Oasis demo tape. Recorded in 1989 it contains five songs none of which have ever been officially released.

Background:
Before joining Oasis in 1991, Noel Gallagher was a budding young songwriter.  Noel has claimed to have been writing songs since his early teens, which would have been around 1980.  In the late 80’s, Noel made home demos of some of the songs he had written since then, including what he claims was the first song he’d ever wrote, called ‘Baj’. These songs were then put onto cassette and given to friends to demonstrate what he was capable of.
The first tape, which contained eight tracks believed to have been recorded by Noel sometime in 1988, was put up for auction at Christies in London on the 30th April 1998, but failed to sell as the highest bid of £3,400 was too low.  It was apparently sold privately at a later date. The second tape, which contained five tracks, was believed to been recorded by Noel and a friend of his called Pete in 1989. Only one track, ‘But What If…’, was previously unknown to Oasis fans, with the other four songs being on the 1988 tape, although it’s unknown if the recordings are exactly the same. A couple of friends of the seller of the tape appeared on alt.music.oasis on the 26th July 2001 gauging possible demand for a private sale. They claimed It had gone up for auction at Christies at an earlier date but didn’t sell.
In June 2006, this tape was put up for sale on eBay but was later sold privately. Clips from all five songs were made available to this site as evidence of the tapes authenticity. The tape was purchased by a consortium of Oasis fans with the explicit agreement that the contents of the tape would be made publicly available and that the tape would later be returned to Noel as a goodwill gesture as fans weren’t sure if an original copy of these songs were held in his archives, and did not wish to profit from his unreleased material. The tape was sent to his management company, Ignition. source

Notes:
The download contains both FLAC and mp3 versions of the tape.

Update 18/12/23:
I've remastered these tracks and are available to download below. The download contains both FLAC and mp3 versions of the remaster.


Tracklist:
01 - What's It Got To Do With You
02 - Hey You
03 - What's Been Happenin'
04 - But What If...
05 - Gotta Have Fun

Oasis: The Sawmills Sessions (2023 TREON Remaster)

TREON287

Nine tracks from the Sawmills studio sessions for the Oasis album Definitely Maybe. Contains the unused studio version of "I Am The Walrus".
 
Notes:
After previously posting The Sawmill Sessions on the blog, I was contacted by a fan who kindly donated the wav files for these sessions. Although these tracks are the highest quality available it does appear that at some point along the chain these files were converted to a lossy format. I thought I would do my best to fix this by putting the tracks though a delossifier before remastering them.

Tracklist:
01 - Cigarettes & Alcohol (Mix)
02 - Digsy's Dinner (Mix)
03 - Bring It On Down
04 - Up In The Sky
05 - Rock 'n' Roll Star
06 - Live Forever
07 - Columbia
08 - Slide Away
09 - I Am The Walrus
