Since its debut in 1994, I have the impression that the number of sound sources will increase over time. European tour of the moon. Despite having played 12 gigs starting in Paris on the 4th, there are only items that record short sound sources, such as incomplete radio broadcasts in Paris and radio recording live that appeared when arriving in the country. I will not. In other words, the item that documents the main part of the tour has not yet appeared. But don't worry, the frustration of such enthusiasts continues to this day. In 2021, the best sound source recording one stage in Europe in November 1994 will finally be released on a limited press CD!

This time it will be released in Frankfurt on the 23rd. Of course, the sound source was provided by a British oasis researcher, who said that the audience recordings were unearthed in recent years, but the sound quality is very good. Batschkapp, which was the stage of the day, is a theater-class venue with a capacity of 1,500 people, and as expected, the sound image of this sound source is extremely on. In addition, it was recorded using DAT, so it is a strangely outstanding audience recording that has not been released so far. First of all, there is no doubt that you will be surprised just by the sound quality. Despite being a superb audience boasting such quality, what is missed is that the pitch was high. Therefore, for this release, we have adjusted this issue firmly. The outstanding high-quality sound recording has finally been upgraded to a state where it is easy to hear, and it will be enclosed in the press CD.

In December of this year, the timeless masterpiece "Whatever" was released in December, which diminished the greenish atmosphere at the time of debut (in a good way), but in Europe in November, only such greenishness and hasty momentum It's the last time the band was pushing. Liam's singing voice, which is in great shape on this day, eloquently tells us that it is such a special time. From the moment I started singing the opening "Rock'n'Roll Star", I was sharp. The 1994 singing voice ... or rather, the youthful singing voice unique to the "DEFINITELY MAYBE" period is shining from beginning to end. After all, the sound image is so close that the clearness of his singing voice is approaching.

In the second half of 1994, for example, in the United States of the previous month, Liam's voice may start to get rough from around "Slide Away" depending on the day. The shadow begins to appear in Liam's voice, which has just rushed. With that in mind, Liam's strong performance here in Frankfurt stands out.

Also in Germany, "DEFINITELY MAYBE" has been released for almost three months, and the reaction is enthusiastic about every song. I think I was happy with that, and it's funny that every time the brothers finish playing, they repeat "Thank you". After overcoming the disappearance of Noel in the United States at the end of September, which was the band's first crisis, it seems that he is playing freely with his brothers and younger in Frankfurt, which was warmly welcomed by the United States.

And after "Bring It On Down", Liam announced that it was someone's birthday, and "Happy Birthday" was sung many times from the audience, but this was Jason Rose, an oasis Rodi. It can be said that it is a peaceful scene.

Before starting the final "I Am The Walrus", Noel even shook to Liam, who asked, "Do you all like the Beatles? You too? You too?" High-quality sound that even his reply can be heard. Although the BGM after the performance was played at the end, the scene where the CD played there caused a playback error and repeated skipping was captured, but it seems that the ending is suitable for this day.

Anyway, it is a mysterious superb audience album that has not been released until now, yet the performance content is also the best. As I mentioned at the beginning, the release of the finest sound source that represents the time when the definitive item did not exist until now will be realized. It is also the release of the 1994 live sound source since "NAGOYA 1994 DAT MASTER", which became the definitive masterpiece of the first performance in Japan, and it is also a 1994 item that is a perfect match. If you want to hear about Europe in November, this is the first!
