“Our demos are great, man, I’ve got to say. We ought to put out a double box-set of our demos. I think the first time you record anything is always the one for me, it’s always magical.”
Noel Gallagher, XFM, 30th May 2005
A presentation of information on these tracks – from Noel Gallagher’s first known recordings in the late 80’s, to tunes laid down for the final Oasis album. You will find information on recording locations and dates, photos of rare tapes and CDs, links to audio of unreleased songs and comments on the recordings themselves from some of the people directly involved.
Oasis Demo Info 
Hey Mr Monobrow, what a fantastic site you have. Not strictly demo related but I was wondering if you were aware of Noel’s 1994 notebook (a different one to the 1993 one you’ve written about)? Bonhams Auctions sold it in Nov 2006 and it (as far as I can tell) seems to have gone unnoticed in the oasis community until I brought it up last year. Since then they have updated the description and added lots more juicy bits of information about it. Along with lots of interesting miscellania it contains handwritten lyrics to:
These unknown songs (perhaps they’re alternative/early titles to songs we already know or have heard about):
– Feeling Like I Think…
– Rainy Summertime
– On’n’On
– Starchild
…the reappearance of one song from Noel 1993 notebook (as seen on your website):
– Callin’ All
…and the appearance of nine post Definitely Maybe Tracks:
– Roll With It [with alternative lyrics]
– All Around The World
– Hello!
– Rockin’ Chair
– Going Nowhere
– Not Finished-Untitled [AKA Bonehead’s Bank Holiday]
– Step Out Tonight [sic]
– Champagne Supernova
– She’s Electric
Just thought I’d keep you in the loop if you had yet to hear. If not, enjoy & keep up the good work!
