Unreleased Demos

Oasis did record some interesting demos around 1992 that have never been released. Here is a list. You can download clips of these songs direct from this server by clicking on the song title. You will need Real Audio software to hear these clips.

In the Spring of 1993 Oasis recorded their first professional sounding demo tape at the Real People's studio in Liverpool. The original tape, named Live Demonstration featured the now familiar looking Oasis swirling Union Jack motif (as seen above). Only ten copies of this demo tape were made, one of which was given to Alan McGee which secured Oasis a record deal. The tape includes an unreleased song,'Strange Thing'. A full on rocker, backed by a Manchester beat, it shares the same bluesy intro riff as the Stone Roses ''Love Spreads', which may be one reason it hasn't become a single or album track. The lyrics, although clumsy in places, are classic Noel Gallagher:
