On May 3, 2003, Noel Gallagher took to the stage and performed his historic gig at the Zanzibar club in Liverpool. Prior to the gig, he had taken the opportunity in several radio interviews to promote the greatness of the newly written song “Stop the Clocks.” In the middle of his set list that night, in between performing “Talk Tonight” and “Wonderwall”, and then “Don’t Look Back in Anger” and “Married With Children”, Noel performed the song he had spoken so much about, and a legend was born. Over the years, an audio recording of the Zanzibar concert never surfaced. Some fans even began to doubt that the concert ever took place, or that the song had been performed that night.
so..who wants to hear it??..without stop the clocks that is...
a fella on an Oasis forum i go on has OBSESSED over this gig and Stop The Clocks since the rumours of it being played began, over the years he has sought out people who were at the gig to hear first hand accounts, even travelled to Liverpool (i think hes lives in america
) to talk to the owner of the Zanzibar and people who were at the gig to see if a taping surfaced..at the start of the month there his obsession paid off.
He got in contact with the person who has the only copy and paid (a quite hefty amount im led to believe) for the recordings..on one condition, he wouldnt give out the stop the clocks untill a studio version was either released or leaked, he gave his word and is adamant hell stick to it.
btw, this gig is really worth downloading incase youre thinkin 'ive heard enough of noel solo versions of these to do me' ...but theyre very unique similar to the recent noel & gem solo tour but i think they're better. the volume is quite low on it aswell so ya may need to turn it up more.
