Oasis: "...There and Then" (Unreleased live album).

"(What´s The Story),Morning Glory?", it´s one of the best albums from all times.The second studio work by Oasis. Recorded March to June 1995 at Rockfield Studios, Monmouth, Wales. It was released on 2 October 1995 by Creation Records and produced by Owen Morris and Noel Gallagher.

The world tour to promote the album began on 22 June 1995 with a pre-Glastonbury festival warm-up gig at the 1,400 capacity Bath Pavilion,which featured the debut of new drummer Alan White in replacement for Tony McCarroll; and several new songs as: "The Swang song"; "Hello", "Roll with it" and "Morning Glory".

The tour went through different festivals from Glastonbury in the UK to Rokskilde in Norway, Slane in Ireland or Aixion Beach in Belgium to tv performances "Tops of The Pops" or "MTV", to concerts all over Europe from Italy, France, Switzerland, Germany to Spain; and a mini summer tour of Japan during the month of August and diferents concerts by US and Canada. 

It was a tremendously successful tour with all sold out, but at the same time it was a difficult period for the band. On September, bass player Paul McGuigan walked out on the group after he was subjected to a flurry of verbal abuse from Liam while doing interviews in Paris. 'Guigsy' cited nervous exhaustion as the reason for his departure. 

Shortly after Scott McLeod of The Ya-Yas was brought in as his replacement. But The problems continuing, during the concert at Virgin Megastore, London, England, on october 1, liam leaves the stage in the middle of "Rocking Chair". Noel and Alan White too. The Show stopped, which caused serious disturvious. In Boston at Orpheum Theatre on October 14, Liam leave the stage after "Chamoagne Supernova" and didn't return after the acoustic set, Noel had to finish the show as a solo singer. A few days after, Mcleod quit the band and returning to home in Manchester,because he was unable to adapt to the frenetic Oasis´s lifestyle. The band played a few dates, including an appearance on David Letterman Show, as a four piece, before McGuigan was convinced to return for the group's Earls Court shows in early November.The two concerts at Earls Court were recorded for the film and a possible live album.

The tour had many interruptions and cancellations, because the fights between brothers up and down the stage, or with the audience, in the middle of a performance or even before this, were ruining relationships and the shows. Liam refuses to attend promotional engagements with the different European radio stations and it is Noel who will do it alone,.and neither will it at some late year concerts. Noel got tired of the little brother stupid attitude and announced that he was leaving the band indefinitely. April 10,1996, Canada The band left the gig after only six songs, because some fans threw items onto the stage, angering the band. 

The two concerts at Maine Road, Manchester, England on April 27 & 28.1996, were recorded for the film and a possible live álbum; like a the concerts at Knebworth on August 10 & 11.But the fights between the brothers continued, a few days later, after Philadelphia concert, bit.ly/2L0gN Liam quits Oasis once again. The band reappears without he at Royal Festival Hall, England, on American TV Show "MTV Unplugged". After this concert Oasis broke up for a brief time, several US tour dates and the entire Australia and New Zealand leg had to be cancelled. Finally the tour ended on 4 December 1996 at the 11,800 capacity Mayo Civic Centre in Rochester, Minnesota, USA.

Two months earlier, the tour film: "...There and Then" was released on VHS, but the doublé LP that has to accompany it was canceled and summed to a three-song cdsgl. One year later on November 1997 the film was re-released on DVD and the posibility of made the album returned again, for which a number of tracks were chosen, but unfortunately it was not compiled and some of these tracks appeared in "(What´s The Story" Morning Glory? and "Be Here Now" Deluxe editions.

Suede: "Animal Lover" (Unreleased)

Suede were formed in 1989 by singer Brett Anderson, bassist Mat Osman and guitarist Justine Frischmann. Bernard Butler later joined after the group responded to an ad in the Melody Maker. released their debut single: “The Drowners” on May 1992.peaked at only number 49 on the UK singles chart.

Once the band had signed with Nude/Sony in November 1992, they began official recording of the album. at Master Rock Studios in Kilburn, north west London with Ed Buller as producer-.

"Animal lover", original album title, should have been the Suede debut album in 1993, but this one was modified as the recording sessions evolved.

When they first entered the recording studio, the band had an album already in mind, a result of the two years they had already played it live with this line-up:

Side A: (23:43)

1.Animal Lover. (4:17)

2.Moving. (2:50)

3.My Insatiable One. (2:59)

4.Metal Mickey. (Unreleased 1st version). (2:31)

5.Pantomime Horse. (5:50)

6.He´s Dead. (5:13)

Side B: (24:46)

1.The Drowners. (4:10)

2.Painted People. (2:50)

3.So Young. (3:38)

4.Brass in Pocket. (3:41)

5.Sleeping Pills (Unreleased 1st version).(4:59)

6.To The Birds. (5:25)

As the recording sessions evolved, The album was restructured. Suede added more new songs; remixed others as: "Metal Mickey". This version is the orginal when the song ending abruptly after the chorus, before that Buller suggested an extended fade-out. “Sleeping Pills” was reduced by taking away his pretty introduction. And removed: “Animal Lover”, bit.ly/2ZpP6 “Moving” and "Brass in pocket".  The new version, now called “Half Dog” soon after “I think you Stink”, it had this other alternate line-up:

Side A: 1.So Young. 2.Animal Nitrate. 3.She´s Not Dead. 4.My Insatiable One. 5.Pantomime Horse.

Side B: 1.The Drowners. 2.Metal Mickey. 3.Sleeping Pills (2nd version). 4.Breakdown. 5.To The Birds. 6.The Next Life.

But during the album mixes the group made a decision similar to what happened in the sixties, the songs that appeared in singles later would not be included in the albums, but in this case they left it alone on the B-sides. From The first single, they removed ”To the birds” “and “My Insatiable One”.From the 2nd: “He´s dead”.Something that Brett Anderson always regretted. But they recovered other discarded ones from the original version.

The album´s photos were choosen by Bret Anderson from the 1991 book Stolen Glances: Lesbians Take Photographs. Photos. by :Tee A. Corinne. From all that Anderson chooseed, She only authorized one photo for the cover, a woman kissing to other in a wheelchair. and insisted they, it could only be shown: the heads and shoulders close-up of the women to protect their identity

.Suede was released first in the UK 29 March 1993,vinyl, MC and CD and worldwide 6 April. In the UK becoming the fastest-selling debut album since Frankie Goes to Hollywood's “Welcome to the Pleasuredome” almost ten years earlier.

Their third single, "Animal Nitrate",went to number seven following their performance of it at the 1993 BRIT Awards. Ten weeks after its release the album had reported sales of over 160,000 only in the UK. But Suede's commercial success in the United States was limited, and due to a lawsuit with an American singer with the same name, the group had to change its name for the American market to The London Suede.

To me the original album “Animal Lover” was much better and no wonder that Brett Anderson regretted it  Finally two bonus tracks: "Animal Nittrate"  - (live at Brit Awards 93) and  "He´s Dead" - (live at Glastonbury´93)

Ok.., here's the reconstruction of that lost great album. Enjoy it.
