Oasis/IL,USA 5.19.2001

To commemorate the release of the 2001 Oasis Brotherly Love Tour for the first time in a long time with “CHICAGO 2001 DAT MASTER”, we have prepared the first release sound source from the tour. We have prepared the St. Paul show on the 19th, the day before the Chicago performance on May 20th. Although this audience recording is not as good as the Chicago performance, which was the most invincible audience on the tour, it is still of very good quality. It is not as good as the recording of “INDIANAPOLIS 2001”, but it is still very easy to listen to. In the digital era of 2001, the sound quality is surprisingly warm, and Liam’s voice is also close. This day is not only the day before Chicago, but also the next show after the webcast in Denver (17th). However, just like Chicago, Liam is in better shape than Denver on this day. When you think about it, it just makes you realize that a really lackluster day was webcast. Liam looked like he was having a lot of fun that day, and even the finale “I Am The Walrus” was getting closer to the end, making strange noises, and he was really into it. This was true not only in St. Paul but also in the next Chicago, but it seems that the compatibility between Noel’s “Step Out” and pinch hitter Steve White was at its peak around this time, and compared to the previous Gift and Indianapolis, this day and the next day in Chicago felt much more energetic. Why did the tempo drop to a sluggish one in June? And it’s really interesting to see how “Gas Panic!”, where the chemistry between Oasis and pinch hitter Steve continued to evolve, shows a completely different development from the next day in Chicago. There, Steve seemed to be running wild in all directions, but here in St. Paul, he was inciting the band with straight momentum, and the way he ended this development with a series of bass drum hits was a masterpiece. This is a valuable audience album that reminds us that not only Chicago, the main release of this time, but also Denver, which was a past staple, was a performance that surpassed the content of the performance on this day.
