Comments:

Tracks from the show were also released on an exclusive edition of 2005's "Don't Believe The Truth" for Best Buy in the United States. On this official release the show was credited wrongly as "June 11, 1994"(!).

This show surfaced via a Radio Promo CD (Audio) and JBTV Promo VHS (Video). All of the video sources are VHS-based - a promo DVD was up for auction at one point in the 2000s but it was snapped up by a collector and not seen since.

A cropped/letter-boxed version of "Up in the Sky" appeared on the Definitely Maybe DVD released in 2004.

Chicago '94 Upgrade is a fan made edit by "alvarojam" which uses the Audio CD as a soundtrack for the Promo VHS, because the original video had audio issues in places.

The concert audio was orignally released on a US promo CD (ESK-6805) by EPIC to US radion stations and heavily bootlegged at the time. The CD features mirror writing (see below) and became collectible upon release.

The "FM broadcast" source comes from a 1997 repeat of the concert on 101.7 FM WFNX Lynn/Boston. (Thanks to @keke from Live4Ever for the info on this release as well as Climbing The Sky and Ode to the Walrus).

The Promo CD was used as a source for independent releases (eg. "Supersonic" is a direct CD clone of the original promo) but because the "Oasis Live!" promo was selling for upwards of £50 at the time, enterprising bootleggers were making counterfeit copies. Some of the counterfeits made it into circulation in "proper" record shops (in fact I bought a dodgy copy of the "OASIS Live!" promo in Tower Records, London in 1995. When I was asking about Oasis Imports the guy behind the counter said to me at the time "we're not really supposed to sell this... and then sold me a copy!)

Identifying a Genuine "Oasis Live! / ESK-6805" Promo...
    The REAL McCoy:
  • In theory should come in a white wax-paper envelope although a collector may have transferred the packaging
  • Shadow/Outline effect on the title (Oasis Live) whereas on the FAKE this subtlety has been lost
  • Matrix # etched around the centre hole is C2 (large gap) 1AESK06805 (gap) 01
  • Elsewhere on the ring is printed "IFPI L422" and a Barcode
  • The ridge within the translucent centre of the disc is 2mm inside the outer, silver section of the disc
  • a 1mm band runs around the edge of the disc, creating the effect of three bands on teh outer rim - matt reflective, shiny reflective and, on the edge, translucent


  • THE FAKE:
  • Print quality is heavier/blacker, title bears no shadow
  • generally sold in clear PVC Slip with a foldover envelope flap.
  • instead of replicating the complicated matrix the disc just has "ESK6805" or "DJ001" running around the hole
  • no gap between the ridge within the translucent centre of the disc and the outer, silver section of the disc
  • no 1mm band around the rim of the disc, aside from the traditional edge
