comments
"This ones for the Princes, Live Forever" - Liam dedicates "Live Forever" to Princess Diana who had recently died on August 31st, 1997.
Spreading The Word (catalogue number "BOB1") was one of the first few Oasis bootleg releases on 2x (green!) CDRs with colour laser-copied artwork in the late nineties (along Sing Me Something New - BOB3) and It's a Knockout - BOB2).
It was later reissued by R&A Music in Scotland: same name and (slightly blurry) 2nd gen colour photocopy of the original artwork. Great sounding recording, but is unfortunately cut between songs rather than a continuous recording (no idea why given they had 2x CDRs of space to play with).
The original release had some pops/skips, eg. in "Be Here Now" at 00:32 and 00:59.
The R&A Music reissue doesn't have the skips and has some slightly shorter track lengths as the gaps have been removed.
It's Getting Better uses the same audio source as Spreading The Word but is (thankfully) uncropped.
The "drumsboy" tape transfer comes from the same source as It's Getting Better but with a slightly shorter intro. (Thanks to @keke from the Live4Ever forum for the track details on this release).
