How badly would you want to hear this?
Having the 1989 tape is great and all, but the titles of those '88 songs and how they were described ... Womb to Tomb, Baj, England ... I just want so badly to hear those. Even if they're not the greatest songs he's ever made, it's just fascinating.
"I hope there is an atomic war and a great big bomb bounces through my door/'Cos I won't live to see another day in England"
-- So curious about how he sang that.
It just twists me to think of this tape sitting in someone's house waiting to be destroyed in a fire or whatever might happen if no copies have been made. Yes, whoever has it now presumably paid good money for it (or is actually Noel?) and it's their call, and in a sense, it would infringe on Noel's privacy. But as much as I respect that, this music still doesn't deserve to be lost to history.

More than likely a big time oasis collector has this locked away somewhere.
It was amazing how we got the 1989 demo tape, fingers crossed we can eventually get the 88' tape in a similar way, who knows?
Thinking about it we haven't had a decent oasis related leak since the demo of let's all make believe have we? That was about a year ago right?

All I could find before posting this thread was that it was supposed to be auctioned at Christie's in London, that was cancelled because the high bid of £3400 was too low, and then it was sold to a private buyer.

Even if so, you can't always expect someone who paid so much own money to purchase the tape, is always willing to share it openly. We can't blame if person who does own the tape, doesn't want to share it openly. We've got many rare stuff for free by courtesy of great souls like MickDude, joakim, noelg798, Tom Legend and legendary Mr. Monobrow. Some early demo's have been shared with the community. I contributed a small part to purchase it twice in past together with many others on here, so I'm always up to take a small part if similar thing happens again. If it comes, it comes.

Am I right in saying with the 1989 demo tape we all contributed to a paypal account, that account was used to bid on / win the tape. The songs were then taken from the cassette and shared with the community and finally the tape was posted to Ignition addressed to Noel? We definitely need to do something similar if this ever becomes a possibility with the 1988 tape Or any other demo tape / cd for that matter.

Yeah Mr Monobrow, Chris from The Masterplan, guys from The Soapbox and other forums / collectors and loads of fans donated to the cause, Mr M then ripped the tape and sent it back to Ignition, he never got a reply mind you. The guy that has the 1988 tape used to post on another forum, his user name was Daydream something something (that song title Noel has spoken about). He was writing a book on Noel if I remember right but he had some personal circumstances and I've personally never heard anything since, that was a good few years ago. I'd donate to any demo fund again. Id love to hear something from the Giants demo tape where Let's All Make Believe demo came from or anything unheard of which we don't know about. We've got a good community for contributing to causes, we just need one to come together for!

I don't blame anyone. I'm happy with all the things we already have but I was reading the story with the Be Here Now demos the other day, and that was weird. (Don't know the right word for it)

Let's try to find this guy and start another crowd funding effort. If we can locate the guy I would put up $1000 towards the goal. This board and its members are worth every penny. So......?

Hey everyone, I have this demo tape! It's mine though, and I'm not sharing.
However, if people give me a mansion, a brand new Mercedes, a million dollars, the Mustique demos, For One So Young, and Just Getting Older live in Cardiff, I might change my mind and share a 30-second clip of Baj.
Any takers?

Any takers? Is that to go with the bridge in London and the land in Florida you keep trying to sell?
