Oasis: Heathen Demostry (Demos & Rarities)

TREON075
Heathen Demostry is a collection of demo's, early mixes and rarities by Oasis for the 2002 album Heathen Chemistry.

Notes:
A collection put together from various sources. I don't have many acoustic sessions from this era but I've included two interesting live versions. The first is Noel performing solo on the Australian TV show "The Panel" and the second is a great version of Songbird from Jo Whiley's Live Lounge on BBC Radio One. Both are pretty good quality but I did do a little bit of clean-up on Songbird.

Tracklist:
01 - The Hindu Times (Demo)
02 - Force Of Nature (Demo)
03 - Stop Crying Your Heart Out (Demo)
04 - Songbird (Demo)
05 - Little By Little (Demo)
06 - The Hindu Times (Piano Intro)
07 - Betterman (Early Mix)
08 - Little By Little (Early Mix)
09 - Songbird (Instrumental)
10 - Stop Crying Your Heart Out (Live On 'The Panel' 2002)
11 - Songbird (The Live Lounge, 12.02.03)

The Smiths: "Meat Is Murder" Live EP (Unreleased)

TREON029pt2
Following the success of the 1985 Meat Is Murder tour, the Smiths started planning the release of a live EP featuring material from the 18 March 1985 concert at the Oxford Apollo. However, plans were scrapped after the test pressing stage, and "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore" from the most recent album "Meat Is Murder" was released in its place, except in Holland where Megadisc preferred another album track, "The Headmaster Ritual".

The "Meat Is Murder" live test pressings bear the same catalogue numbers as the "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore" 7" and 12", and have become highly collectible. Two versions of the 7" have made it into the hands of lucky collectors, one with a Mayking label, the other with a pale yellow label.

Notes:
All tracks are sourced from The Smiths Extra Track (and a tacky badge) remaster project. Special thanks goes to them for the wonderful job those guys did and making them available to everyone.
 
This was uploaded as Part II of the "You've Got Everything Now" B-sides and rarities collection but the file was taken down (why this file was picked on to be removed I have no idea). I have re-uploaded the original file and it contains Artwork and track information for both parts.

Tracklist:
Meat Is Murder EP: Live at Apollo Theatre, Oxford, 18th March 1985

01. William, It Was Really Nothing
02. Nowhere Fast
03. Stretch Out And Wait
04. Shakespeare's Sister
05. Meat Is Murder
06. Miserable Lie

Bonus Tracks:
07. Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others (Live at Brixton Academy, London 12th December 1986)
08. Hand In Glove (Live at Brixton Ace, London, 29th June 1983)
09. Girl Afraid (Live at Queen Margaret Hall, Glasgow, 2nd March 1984)
10. Handsome Devil (Live at The Hacienda, Manchester, 4th February 1983)
11. What's The World? (Live at Caird Hall, Dundee, 26th September 1985)
12. London (Live at National Ballroom, London, 23rd October 1986)
