The Boo Radleys - 1993-09-13 - Black Session #34, Studio 106, Paris

Firstly, I hope you all had an excellent Christmas and got everything you wanted from it! Now, down to business: The Black Sessions are a long-running French radio session, which started in 1992 and is still going to this day. There were a lot of great bands on it back in the 90's and early 00's, (I have 10-15 sessions by other bands to post in future) but having looked at the artists who have recently appeared on the show it seems to be going downhill. This was the Boo Radley's first Black Session; the second was in 1998, promoting their final album, Kingsize. The songs here are taken from their first two albums, however this session took place before their mid-90's commercial peak so don't expect the likes of Wake Up Boo!, the songs here are a bit more shoegaze-y. This is pretty rare and it took me a while to find it online, but here it is in all its glory to enjoy. Link is my own, enjoy!

Inspiral Carpets - BBC Radio One Sessions

This is a pretty exhaustive collection of BBC sessions from throughout the career of Oldham's Inspiral Carpets. Not sure if it collects every session they ever did or just some though. Anyway, the 21 songs here span the band's four albums, as well as their unique takes on the Stones' Gimme Shelter and Black Sabbath's Paranoid.  The sound quality on this is excellent, as you would expect from a collection of Radio Broadcasts.  This on top of the generous tracklist make this a worthy download for any fan of the band.

The Stone Roses - 1995-08-06 - Live At The Feile Festival, Cork

Another Stone Roses gig, however this the first I've posted from the Second Coming era.  Unfortunately the last few tracks, as well as half of Love Spreads, are cut off, but this is still a decent quality recording, if a little tinny.  The setlist is quite Second Coming heavy, but there is at least the classic opening trio of I Wanna Be Adored, She Bangs The Drums and Waterfall, and the songs off Second Coming are some of the better ones on the album. If you're looking for a couple of 1995 gigs, you could do a lot worse than this, only problem is the aforementioned missing tracks. Artwork was found online, link is mine.

The Charlatans - 1995-11-21 - Live At The Guildhall, Southampton

This excellent gig by the Charlatans was on the tour for 1995's exceptional self-titled album. Pretty much everything they did between 1994 and 1997 was absolutely brilliant in my opinion, and this show is no exception. The setlist is brilliant, and I would've loved to see them on this tour. Shame they seem to be 'doing a Paul Weller' and trying to experiment a bit with their new music; wish they would stick to what they're good at! Sound quality is pretty good, if a bit muffled. I got this from this excellent Charlatans blog, so credit goes to the owner, Spiral. Artwork is also from there, but the link here is my own.

Paul Weller - 2002-07-28 - Live At Hyde Park

This excellent gig from 2002 was released on a DVD I believe, however the audio is quite hard to come across (well, until now!). You can watch this gig on youtube, to give you an idea of the excellent sound quality. The setlist here is a healthy 24 songs, and is mostly excepetional, perhaps with the exception of a couple of Heliocentric and Illumination-era tracks.  Paul is joined for the last two songs by Kelly Jones, of the Stereophonics. As far as I know, this is the only live performance of Call Me No. 5 (Weller and Jones's excellent collaboration which features on Illumination). Jones also takes vocals on parts of Woodcutter's Son, making it a unique version.  Well worth a download for the last two tracks alone, although the rest of the gig is excellent too.  Links and artwork are my own. Also, the blog recently hit 50 000 views! So thanks to everyone who has visited, and here's to 50 000 more :)

The Who - 1968-04-06 - Live At The Fillmore East, New York

This is one of the earliest bootlegs I have, and I'm not an expert but I was surprised at how good the sound quality on this is.  This gig was in 1968, when (in my opinion, as ever) The Who were at the beginning of the peak of their career, that lasted until the mid-70s. Pretty good setlist containing songs that should be familiar to everyone, although I think the last 3 songs here are from another source, possibly a TV show. If anyone can clarify please let me know.  As previously stated, the sound quality is excellent and the setlist is good. Link is my own, artwork is not. Enjoy!

Supergrass - 2004-06-27 - Live At Glastonbury

First post by Supergrass, an excellent band who sadly split up early last year. This greatest hits set from 2004 was promoting their Best Of compilation, Supergass Is 10, released the same year. The gig was broadcast by the BBC, so the sound quality is as good as you would expect. I ripped the audio for this from videos hosted on Youtube by DiamondHooHaMan, so credit where it's due there. The setlist is quite short, although no complaints from me as most of my personal favourites are played: Rush Hour Soul, Pumping On Your Stereo and Grace. Link and artwork are both my own.

Oasis - Heathen Chemistry Sessions

This collection of demos and alternate versions dates from between 2000 and 2002, in the years leading up to what is widely regarded as their worst album, Heathen Chemistry. However, this collection doesn't include many of the songs that dragged that album down, and as a result is still an enjoyable listen. The only complaint you could really have is that there are repeated versions of songs, and The Hindu Times alternate intro version is near-identical to the one on the album. Still, some excellent songs here, notably the very different demo of The Hindu Times and a cover of Slade's Merry Christmas Everybody (quite fitting I'm posting this on the first day of December!). I originally got this from Jim's excellent Big Brother Recordings blog a few years ago, so credit must go to him. The excellent artwork was done by a guy called Jake. Link is my own, enjoy!

The Verve - 2008-06-29 - Live At Glastonbury

This was one of The Verve's reunion gigs from 2008, headlining the Glastonbury festival.  It was broadcast by the BBC, meaning there is excellent sound quality on this one.  The setlist is only 12 songs, but there isn't a bad one among them: classic after classic after classic. The closest thing there is to a bad song here is Sit and Wonder, which is saying something! The band is on excellent form, with Ashcroft in full-blown frontman mode. The videos of their set are available on Youtube, and it looks like an incredible night, wish I was there! This excellent download comes recommended due to the setlist and sound quality.  Link is my own but found the excellent artwork on google.

Stereophonics - 2010-10-18 - Performance and Cocktails At The Hammersmith Apollo, London

This gig from last year was played to mark the re-issuing of Stereophonics' first two albums: this night saw 1999's Performance and Cocktails played in full, as well as B-sides from the era and a small greatest hits set at the end. A similar thing was done the previous night, only for Word Gets Around. I ripped all this audio from various Youtube videos, similar to my Arctic Monkeys Don Valley project, which means sound quality varies. All original uploaders are credited below and inside the download. However, a sizeable chunk of the setlist is either missing or the songs are cut: I would guess maybe half of the gig falls under these categories. However, the other half is excellent, with some great recordings of rare songs. Many of these have not been played live in years, and may never be played live again! As a result, this is well worth a download. Link and artwork are my own, enjoy!

Ian Brown - 1998-07-12 - Live At T In The Park

Another early Ian Brown gig, which are quite hard to come by, from the T In The Park Festival in 1998. Ian was promoting his debut solo album, Unfinished Monkey Business, and the setlist is made up entirely of songs from that as well as a cover of Hendrix's Little Wing. No Stone Roses songs would appear live for a fair few years, unfortunately! Your enjoyment of this will really depend on whether or not you like his debut album; his voice is not great here (even by his standards), although the sound quality is pretty good and clear. Link and artwork are my own.

Manic Street Preachers - 2011-01-27 - Live At The Miner's Institute, Blackwood

I'm not the biggest fan of the Manics admittedly, but they have released a lot of great songs over the course of their career and this gig showcases a lot of them. This gig, which was broadcast on the radio, was the band's first show in their hometown of Blackwood for over 25 years. The setlist contains their biggest hits alongside lesser known album tracks, such as the excellent Enola Alone, and songs from last year's excellent Postcards From A Young Man. Sound quality could not be any better, and this is worth getting for some of the rarer songs played. Link and artwork are my own.

Ride - Live Light

This excellent live recording dates from 1994 or 1995, although there seems to be speculation about what gig this recording is taken from. The setlist draws heavily from Carnival Of Light, the album that inspired this blog's name and design: 4 of the 10 tracks played are from that album, as well as two B-sides from the same era. Sound quality is very good. This is one of only two live recordings I know of from the 'post-shoegaze' era; the other, the Black Session, has already been posted here. If anyone knows of or has any more gigs from '94 onwards, please get in touch as I'd be very interested in hearing them. Link is my own, enjoy!

Travis - 1999-12-23 - Live At The Glasgow Barrowlands

Another great band who haven't featured on here yet are Travis, so here is one of a couple of bootlegs I have by them. There are a fair few recordings available online but they seem to be pretty clustered and are hard to find if you don't know where to look, so trying to spread them about a bit! This show, which was to promote The Man Who, would probably have been considered a homecoming show for the band, and it doesn't disappoint: probably my favourite Travis bootleg I own. The setlist is surprisingly long considering they only had two albums out at that point, 19 songs, which are made up of songs from their first two albums as well as their improbable cover of Britney Spears' Baby One More Time! Sound quality is very good audience although the crowd are fairly loud between songs and singing along. Link and artwork are my own, pretty pleased with the artwork. Another reminder that I am slowly but surely replacing other people's links on old posts with my own, so if there's anything you've seen but couldn't download before it's worth looking again. If I haven't got round to replacing the link yet then let me know and I'll prioritise that one above others.

Primal Scream - 2005-06-26 - Live At Glastonbury

Not posted anything by Primal Scream on here yet, but they're an excellent band with some great songs so it's about time! When I first downloaded this I had no idea, but a quick visit to Youtube told me this was a notorious gig, with Bobby Gillespie insulting the crowd and being escorted from the stage at the end. The set is slightly shambolic in places, with City being restarted and Bobby talking during the full version, but this is still worth having due to the excellent sound quality (I think it was broadcast by the BBC) and the excellent setlist: Rocks, Jailbird, Movin' On Up and the aforementioned City, some of my favourite Scream songs, are wheeled out here. Link and artwork are my own, enjoy!

The Rolling Stones - 1973-10-17 - Live At The Foret National, Brussels

I am no expert when it comes to Stones live stuff, but from what I can gather this is considered to be one of the best recordings of them available. Would like a few more though, so if anyone has any recommendations please let me know! This gig took place when they were (in my opinion) at their peak, and this is reflected in the quality of the setlist. Sound quality is very good, especially for the time, and the band are on fire. Great, worthwhile download for anyone. Link is my own, found the artwork somewhere online though.

Beady Eye - 2011-10-07 - Live At The Atlantico, Rome

Another recent Beady Eye recording, from almost exactly a month ago. This gig is notable for being the live debut of both World Outside My Room (which is, oddly, the opening song) and the excellent In The Bubble With A Bullet. The band play well, although Liam is starting to cut some of the notes a bit short like on the last Oasis tour (thankfully not nearly as bad as then though) and sound quality is good. The gig was recorded by a guy called Alessio, so all credit must go to him. The excellent artwork above was made by JohNLiaM. Link is my own.

Blur - 1999-03-15 - Live At The Hippodrome, London

This is one of only a couple of Blur gigs I have, however is probably the best in terms of sound quality. It is a soundboard recording that was apparently done for the BBC, and as a result is one of the more commonly found Blur bootlegs. The 15-song setlist is very 13 heavy, which may be a good or bad thing based on your taste, as well as a few songs from Leisure and Blur. None of their mid-90s hits (Parklife, Country House) are here although there is Beetlebum and Song 2 which more than makes up for this in my opinion. Artwork and link are my own.

Ocean Colour Scene - 1999-10-28 - Live At The NIA, Birmingham

This seems to be one of the most common OCS boots online, but thought I would stick it up anyway. This is a homecoming gig which would've been from when they were touring in support of One From The Modern, released the same year. The setlist is a healthy 20 songs long, and incorporates all their best known songs, as well as a couple off One From The Modern and a cover of the Small Faces' All Or Nothing. Sound quality is good, very much listenable. Link and artwork are my own. Also, I am in the process of adding my own links to old posts where I used other people's, which will no doubt take a while but will mean links that are currently dead will be resurrected!

Babyshambles - Stookie + Jim Bumfest Demos

Some more Babyshambles demos for you all, this being a collection of acoustic recordings from about 2007 (I presume, as most of the songs here appeared on Shotter's Nation). I prefer these to the Whitechapel demos posted before as both the sound quality and standard of songs played are better, in my opinion. Worth a download as it's a chance to hear acoustic versions of some well known songs including the excellent Delivery and Carry On Up The Morning. The artwork (which I'm pretty happy with) and link are both my own. This post is dedicated to Billy Sharp, who bravely played for the mighty Doncaster Rovers last night after the tragic death of his two year old son two days previously.

Arctic Monkeys - Top Marks For Not Trying

I had a bit of Arctic Monkeys stuff knocking about that wasn't really worth posting by itself as there was only 5 or so tracks in each collection, so I cobbled them together to form this compilation, similar to the Proud Mary album I made a while back. This and Beneath The Boardwalk cover all the material never officially released up until 2008, although I'm not sure any other songs have surfaced since then anyway. This is made up of the Favourite Worst Nightmare Demos, the songs on the Covers Mixtape that were not officially released, and three other unreleased tracks that have never really been compiled anywhere: Wagon On The Way To The Stripey Tent, Put Me In A Terrorpocket and Sandtrap. All the tracks here are from around the Favourite Worst Nightmare era, hence the band logo used in the artwork I made. Basically, think of this as Beneath the Boardwalk part 2. This is exclusive to the blog, and in my humble opinion very much worth a download to help complete your Arctic Monkeys collection. Link is my own.

Tracks 1,5 and 11 ripped from various Youtube videos.
Tracks 2,4,6,7,8 and 12 from Favourite Worst Nightmare Demos.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - 2011-10-23 - Live At The Olympia, Dublin

This is the first ever gig played by Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, and as a result is a worthwhile addition to anyone's collection, for the historical significance if nothing else. The 20-song setlist (which has been played at every gig so far) does not disappoint, with a healthy dose of Oasis classics amongst his excellent new songs. There is also a brilliant unreleased song played called Freaky Teeth, although it isn't clear if this will ever be released officially. Until then, this will have to do! This recording is admittedly not the best quality (the best of the three gigs available online is Edinburgh, which will be posted either here or on Pick A Part That's new in future), however as I said it's still worth a download just to say you have it! The gig was originally recorded and put on Youtube by Johnky, although ordahlen converted the audio to MP3 and posted a link, which is how I got hold of it, so credit must go to both of them. The excellent artwork was done by JohNLiaM, although the link here is my own.

Shed Seven - One Hand Clapping: The Unreleased Demos 2001-2003

Shed Seven were a much-maligned band from the Britpop era, but (surprise surprise) I like them. They had some great songs, especially on their last album, Truth Be Told. This came out a few years after they split (although the band has now reformed and is touring) and the songs here probably would've gone on to make up their 5th studio album. This was officially released, but in very small quanitities, making it pretty rare. Good collection of songs, worth a download. Link is my own.

Embrace - 2000-05-29 - Live At The Wulfrun Hall, Wolverhampton

I'm a big fan of Embrace, but live stuff is rarer than rocking horse shit; I only have two gigs, both from 2000. This gig would've been promoting Drawn From Memory, their excellent second album. No clue where I originally got this as had it for a couple of years now. The sound quality here is very good and the setlist is exceptional, although I am biased as I much prefer their earlier stuff. Link and artwork are both my own. This is worth a download as hey, you're not gonna find many other Embrace bootlegs!

The Stone Roses - 1989-06-03 - Live At The Walsall Junction

With the news the Roses are reforming the other day, it'd be rude not to post something by them! So here is another classic 1989 gig, from just before the legendary Empress Ballroom show (which can also be found on this blog). Indeed, some people prefer this show to the Blackpool one. This is quite a well-known boot but I couldn't find it anywhere so had to rip the audio from Birtles20's excellent youtube channel, check it out at http://www.youtube.com/user/Birtles20 Sound quality is excellent and the band are on great form, so this comes recommended. The the link is mine but found the artwork on Google so not sure whose it is, just chopped it down to fit in iTunes.

Stereophonics - 2010-02-20 - Live At The Winter Olympics, Vancouver

Taken a while to get round to posting anythig by the 'Phonics, but live stuff is hard to come by as the Word Gets Around forum seems to be closed. I have a couple of gigs which I will upload in future, but decided to do this one first as never seen it anywhere else. I found this on soulseek in flac form ages ago, and converted it to mp3. Sound quality is excellent, think this may have been an official broadcast although not sure. Link and artwork are my own.

The Real People - 1998 Demos

This excellent collection of demos is just one of the many I own, more of which will be posted in future. However this is probably my favourite collection of demos, up there with '97 (already posted) and '99 (will be posted in future!). Had this for a long time and listened to it many times, and I'm confident that had these songs been officially released as an album it would be up there with my all-time favourites. Sound quality is pretty good, better than the 1997 demos. Strongly recommended to anyone. Link and artwork are my own.

Paul Weller - 1996-08-18 - Live At V96

This is an excellent Weller gig from 1996, at the very first V Festival. The setlist is 20-odd songs featuring guest appearances from both Noel Gallagher and Ocean Colour Scene. This, for me, is right when Paul was at the height of his powers and as a result this is pretty much my dream Weller setlist! I originally got this from the ridiculously good Paul's Bootique blog, although uploaded my own link. The excellent artwork you see above is by Marco, although I chopped it down a bit to stick on iTunes. Sound quality here is pretty good, no complaints. Definitely worth a download for fans of Weller's mid-90s output.

Arctic Monkeys - 2011-08-06 - Live At The House Of Blues, Chicago

This is a recent Arctic Monkeys gig, which I've already uploaded on Pick A Part That's New alongside a few other recent gigs. Thought I would post it here though as this blog gets more exposure and also because I'm away for the weekend and wanted to post something before I go. Still, this is an excellent gig with very good sound quality, and shouldn't disappoint any serious fan of the band. Artwork and link are my own.

Another Viva Brother boot, they seem to be pretty despised but I'm a fan, so it's here if anyone wants it. I ripped this from videos on the band's official Youtube channel, so the sound quality here is excellent. Slightly longer setlist than the gig already posted as well.

RPA And The United Nations Of Sound - 2010-06-05 - Live In Ancona

This is a gig from last year that Richard Ashcroft did with his ill-fated United Nations Of Sound project. However, this setlist includes a decent number of Verve and solo classics, which in my opinion makes it worth downloading. The only real downsides are the quality of some of his newer songs and the overblown drum sound heard on a couple of songs. Sound quality here is very good. The artwork and link are my own.

Heavy Stereo - B-Sides and Singles

Another Heavy Stereo post, and unless any live shows surface it'll be the last: if you own this and Deja Voodoo (I posted that a few months back) you own everything the band has ever done, apart from their Jam cover (The Gift) which featured on a Jam tribute album. This is comprised of two non-album singles (Sleep Freak and Smiler), their B-sides and the B-sides to their album singles as well. Got this compilation a while ago but can't remember where from, think it may have been the sadly deceased ABC Afterglow blog. Anyway I made this artwork to accompany it and hosted my own link, so enjoy!

Oasis - Be Here Now - The Complete Acoustic Collection

Apologies for the lack of posts on this blog recently, but hopefuly this can go some way towards making up for it. I must admit this blog is starting to look strinkingly similar to Jim's excellent Rkid blog, but in my defence I have been working on putting this together for the past few days and would be a waste not to post it! Anyway, this is a complete (or as near to complete as anyone could want!) record of all the acoustic sessions and live performances done by Oasis in the Be Here Now era of 1997-98.  Unsurprisingly the vast majority of these are sung my Noel; there is only one Liam sung track although it is the excellent 'Live By The Pool' version of Stand By Me. There are too many excellent performances of classics on here to pick highlights, but one thing I would say is this is not for the casual fan due to the sheer volume of music and multiple versions of several tracks. For anyone else though, this should be a very worthwhile download.

Proud Mary - Raise A Glass (Live, Demos And Rarities)

CARNIVAL OF LIGHT ORIGINAL
Proud Mary are a band that were formed in the late 90s in Manchester, and are notable for being the first band signed to Noel Gallagher's record label, Sour Mash. They have only released 3 albums in the last 10 years, so decided to take matters into my own hands and collect everything else I could find and turn it into a compilation. I called it Raise A Glass after a line from their cover of The Stones' Salt Of The Earth. Artwork was also made by me. If you like Proud Mary, check out my friend Jim's excellent blog at http://proudmaryband.blogspot.com/

This is another recent stripped back gig Lee Mavers has done with Gary Murphy. I ripped the audio from Superpaulmccabe's youtube channel so credit goes to him. Sound quality here is decent, loud shouting between songs but ok during them. Have another recent La's boot but not sure if I'm allowed to upload it so will have to sit on it for the time being I'm afraid. Artwork made by me, enjoy!

Apologies for the huge delay between posts, been on holiday and my laptop has recently broken again so only just getting all my stuff back together.  Also been concentrating more on Pick A Part That's New in the last few days. Anyway, this is another recent Kasabian show, this one from the Hurricane Festival which I think is held in Germany. Sound quality here is excellent, probably the best of any boot I've heard from this year (for more see my other blog, Pick A Part That's New).

Beady Eye - 2011-04-03 - Live At The Brixton Academy

This is the 2nd Beady Eye post from me, and also the second Beady Eye gig I attended. This was at the Brixton Academy Japan Benefit gig (Paul Weller's performance from the night has already been uploaded here), which was broadcast on XFM. As a result, the sound quality is excellent.This is a slightly shorter setlist than Beady Eye have been playing, as time was limited due to all the other bands. It is notable for being the first, and to date the only time that the band have played their cover of Across The Universe.The artwork is by Small Faces so credit goes to him for that! Link is my own, enjoy.

The Seahorses - B-Sides

The Seahorses were formed in the mid-90s by John Squire, after he left the Stone Roses. They recoded two albums, one of which was released and one which wasn't (this was posted here a few months back). They also released four singles; the B-sides from the three released album tracks, as well as the non-album single You Can Talk To Me and its B-sides make up this compilation. Not had a chance to listen to this yet, but I am a big fan of their two albums, so I have high hopes for this unofficial collection (tagged it as a rarity as all the songs were officially released). I knocked this artwork up in a couple of minutes to accompany this download.

Kasabian - Saracuse Demos

Firstly, apologies for the lack of posts over the past week or so. My computer has again broken, and I am currently waiting for it to be returned from PC world. This is pretty awful timing as I'm going on holiday for 3 weeks on Saturday, and as a result haven't been able to stockpile any posts for when I'm away. If I get my computer back tomorrow I may be able to create a few, but don't expect many posts over the coming weeks. ANYWAY... This rare collection of demos dates from 1999, when Kasabian were still called Saracuse (hence the name). Not been able to properly listen to this yet, but it is (as far as I'm aware) the only collection of Kasabian demos in circulation, and as a result will probably be of interest to fans of the band. From what I've heard of this the sound is quite different from their debut album, released a few years after these demos were recorded. I made this artwork as I couldn't find any. Link is my own.

Babyshambles - Rare Live Tracks

Babyshmables are a band from England who are fronted by Pete Doherty. They have released 2 albums and a third has supposedly been imminent for about two years now, not sure it will ever come out to be honest. I compiled this a few years ago when they started playing new tracks live; it was originally intended to consist of just the new songs, but some live covers crept in and the result is this compilation. I ripped all the audio from various Youtube videos, so the sound quality varies; it is admittedly quite poor on a couple of tracks. None of it is totally unlistenable though. I've never seen another bootleg containing the newer songs played, and not sure if any of the covers included here have been included on a bootleg either, so I would strongly recommend this to any Babyshambles fan. I made this artwork to accompany the download, which I'm quite happy with.

Kula Shaker - 1997-06-26 - Live At The Roskilde Festival

Kula Shaker were one of the most critically savaged bands of the Britpop era, which may admittedly have been  due to the singer's infamous swastika comments. However, in my opinion they had some great tunes. In fact, they reformed in 2006 and have since released 2 albums, both of which are excellent; I recommend checking out Pilgrims Progress, released last year. This bootleg was recorded at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark, and was probably about the time when when the band were at their commercial peak. The sound quality here is excellent, almost certain this is a soundboard recording. Highlights of this 14-song setlist include 303, Hey Dude and the non-album single, Hush. This is definitely worth a download for fans of the band.

Whiteout - Bite It

Whiteout were a Scottish band who formed in the early 90s in Greenock and released two albums; Wikipedia says they split shortly after the release of their second album (which will be posted in future as it is extremely rare) in 1998. The band's only real claim to fame is touring with Oasis just before the latter band became massive; Whiteout started the tour as headlining act but after the first night were demoted to 2nd on the bill, and rightly so! That said, Whiteout were still a good band with some excellent tunes, and this album is actually very good. Their sound is best compared to mid-90s Charlatans, although they have a more laid-back vibe. Highlights from this album include Thirty Eight, No Time and Altogether. This is recommended to fans of the Charlatans' mid 90s work, curious Oasis fans and those who enjoyed The Gyres album posted previously.

The Stone Roses - 1990-06-09 - Live On Glasgow Green

This, along with the previously posted Blakpool gig, is regarded as one of the best Stone Roses gigs of all time. It was held in a specially erected tent on Glasgow Green, hence the name, and apparently the sweat was raining off the ceiling! It is notable for several reasons: for being the band's last gig for over 4 years, for being Reni's last performance with the band, and just for being a bloody good gig. The setlist is excellent; it basically consists of most of the songs that were played at their 1989 gigs, plus the excellent Fool's Gold and One Love. Sound quality is pretty good, not soundboard but good audience recording, and the band sound on great form. This is strongly recommended to all Stone Roses fans; if you enjoyed the Blackpool gig I posted before this should be right up your street. Only negative is that some of the songs are contained within the same track, although if you have an MP3 splitter this can be sorted should you so desire. Link is my own.

Noel Gallagher - 2006-11-28 - Live At The Cabaret Sauvage

As most of you will by now be aware, Noel Gallagher today announced both his first and second solo albums at a press conference in London; all details are available on his new website: http://www.noelgallagher.com. Very exciting news! There is a huge buzz about it at the moment, and I felt it wouldn't be acceptable to post anything wasn't Noel today, so here is an excellent semi-acoustic gig from 2006. The gig is from when Noel was promoting the Stop The Clocks compilation by doing smaller acoustic gigs with Gem Archer and Terry Kirkbride, and as a result crowd noise from this gig is minimal. The sound quality is also excellent as I believe the gig was professionally recorded. The 13 song setlist contains lots of early material, including B-sides, as well as a rare cover of the Beatles' Strawberry Fields Forever. This gig is definitely worth a download to hear acoustic, Noel-sung versions of well-known and of course the Beatles cover.

1. It's Good To Be Free
2. Talk Tonight
3. Fade Away
4. Cast No Shadow
5. The Importance Of Being Idle

Milburn - Demos

Milburn were a band formed in Sheffield in the mid '00s, and who split up in 2009 after the release of their second album. They were part of the group of Sheffield bands that broke through following Arctic Monkey's success, alongside bands like Reverend and the Makers and Little Man Tate. Despite this, they supposedly had the early Arctic Monkeys sound before the Monkeys themselves, much like The Real People and Oasis. There are tons of different collections of demos floating about but I collected all the ones I could find and the result is this exhaustive collection spanning their short career. It is admittedly fairly ramshackle, especially where tracklisting and song info are concerned, but it should be easily fixable on iTunes. I made this artwork to accompany the demos, as there was none previously available. This is recommended to fans of the Sheffield bands mentioned above, especially Arctic Monkeys fans who miss the bands 'old' sound, although I would recommend listening to one of Milburn's two studio albums before taking the plunge and downloading this, as there is a lot of Milburn here!

Northside - Post Factory Demos

Northside were a Madchester band whose sole album was released on Factory Records in either 1990 or '91. However, the recorded enough material between 1992 and 1996 to comprise a separate album after being dropped by Factory, as this collection showcases. There are various collections knocking about, some titled '2nd album demos' and others 'Post-factory demos', but I'm not sure if they're the same or not. This is a decent collection of songs although the singer's voice is likely to be very Marmite, so I would recommend checking them out on Youtube before you download if you aren't familiar with the band. Highlights include Tonight, Pleasuredome and Freak Circus. I made this artwork myself, quite pleased with it personally. Recommended to serious fans of the Madchester scene, especially the Happy Mondays.

Arctic Monkeys - 2011-06-10 - Live At The Don Valley Bowl, Sheffield

CARNIVAL OF LIGHT ORIGINAL!
This was the first of the Monkeys' two recent homecoming gigs. Not seen any bootlegs of this gig, so I took it upon myself to rip the audio from various youtube videos and create one. I tried to choose the one with the best sound quality for each song, but no one person had recorded the whole thing so sound quality varies song to song. Most of it is decent quality though. Highlights from this mammoth setlist include The Hellcat Spangled Shalalala, Mardy Bum (a slower, alternate and in my opinion superior version), I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor and Fluorescent Adolescent. I'm seeing them on their UK tour in November, really looking forward to it especially as their recent setlists have been excellent. This won't be for everyone due to the hit-and-miss sound quality, but haven't seen many recent bootlegs apart from this and another from Boston, which I will be posting soon! If anyone has any more boots from this year, please get in touch, cheers. New link to replace the old one which disappeared for some reason.

The Shining - True Skies





The Shining are known mainly for being a 'Verve offshoot', which I think is a tad unfair as despite containing 2 former members of the Verve they are a good band in their own right. This, their only album, dates from 2002. The best way to describe their sound is Oasis playing The Verve's Urban Hymns. Highlights from this excellent and underrated album include Quicksilver, Young Again, I Wonder How and Crest Of An Ocean, although the whole album is solid. I would go as far as describing this as a lost gem, and as a result it comes recommended, especially to fans of the Verve.
  1. "Quicksilver" – 3:59
  2. "Young Again" – 5:12
  3. "Find a Reason" – 3:41
  4. "Crest of an Ocean" – 5:09
  5. "Show You the Way" – 5:28
  6. "I Wonder How" – 4:44
  7. "I Am the One" – 3:44
  8. "Danger" – 4:03
  9. "Find Your Way Home" – 5:07
  10. "What You See" – 4:39
  11. "Until the End" – 9:47
  12. "Quicksilver" (Outro) – 1:50
