Release Notes
Interesting story these are. According to ijwthstd, this taper worked as an usher in the San Francisco area and has taped hundreds of gigs. I've gotten a few Blur and Pulp gigs from him too. These are the first Oasis related shows the taper recorded. U2 was recorded as well.
Disclaimer, these recordings are a little worse for wear when it comes to the other Oakland show I posted two months prior (and the main source for the shows too). In both recordings, Don't Look Back In Anger is cut and missing a few seconds. The second night had some tracking issues I guess where the same soundbite of someone going "yeah!" can he heard after Live Forever, the 6 second track called 'end' and Champagne Supernova.
The file format for both shows are in AIFF. From what I can gather, its still a lossless format
Noel introduces the band "Good evening, we're Oasis, from Manchester." Liam clarifies: "Manchester, England!".
Oakland Here I Come was frequently traded as a recording from the 1st night (18/06/97) when in fact it was a different audience source of the 2nd night.
Oakland '97 (1st Night) is a GENUINE recording of the 1st Night sourced from a DAT master - most of the other copies of this show in circulation are different audience sources of the 2nd night.
A second DAT source of the show is also in circulation ("DAT Clone (Source #2) [flac]") with a longer intro. In my opinion this 2nd source is brighter/clearer and would be a superior recording if not for the audience chatter which is quite loud at times. In the words of @jezza2 on the Live4Ever forum "It's kinda a toss up of to which is better, but a new source is a new source!" :)
As of 2025, a THIRD source is also in circulation courtesy of the "Neekrive Archive".
