Noel Gallagher quits Oasis

[The Midnight Rambler]

Bring on the neg but I agree, don’t really like any Who albums from start to finish but you’ve gotta put them in there. Even if it’s cheating.

No neg, so I’m guessing you agree. Obviously live albums can’t count either.

Why not?

Why 

 

Some bands live albums are so much better than anything they did in the studio. Live at Leeds, Allman Brothers best if Live at the Filmore East. 

 

Even today two of my favourites Blackberry Smoke and Nathaniel Rateliff both live albums have so much more than studio ones. 

 

Could easily argue Sam Cookes best album is Live at the Harlem Square club

Live albums definitely do count, a lot of my favourite LPs are live.

Why are people so snobbish against 'Best of' albums? I don't want to listen to filler songs that record companies told bands they had to do in between their best songs.

You need to get a better record collection. Only shite bands release album after album full of fillers.

The Who are fucking boss. So is Noel Gallagher music. 

 

Still blows my mind that some of you who clearly know a bit about music can't abide them. Listen to The Masterplan album and tell me that collection of b-sides isn't superb. Definitely Maybe is one of the greatest albums of all time. Fuck you.

If I want to listen to a band who started out on Creation Records, with argumentative brothers on guitar and vocals, who released a great debut album and a fine b sides collection then it's going to be The Jesus And Mary Chain every time.

Oasis piss on them. Good band though.

Where's Tony McCarroll's Screamadelica? 

[redheart]

Gallagher and Oasis is were very good in parts.

 

But I never got all that inspired by the Beatles bullshit.

 

They clearly ripped of Slade and Slade were better than Oasis.

 

Slade suffer in terms of reputation because of the Glam Rock look, that fucking Christmas song and the fact that they were a singles band. Lots of truly great songs but no single definitive great Album

They’re basically compilation albums too. Seems unjust to criticise one but have the other.

I'm not sure you could describe Live At Leeds as a 'compilation album'. It's a document of where The Who were on that particular night in 1970.

I definitely agree up to a point. I think that the last 23 years of music they've put out has mostly been bad enough that people refuse to accept  they were mostly brilliant between 1994 and 1996. Seeing them in the early days was still one of the most exciting gig-going moments I've ever had. But let's face it, from Be Here Now-onwards almost everything they put out has been rubbish, Noel is a fucking tory twat and his music taste is narrow in the extreme.

[ZonkoVille77]

Some cunts think it's cool to put Oasis down. Sure they went shit after the 3rd album. But pretending they haven't got great songs or weren't a huge influence on music at the time is just nonce territory. 

[Tony Moanero]

I’ve never been into Oasis, I just don’t enjoy their music and dislike Liam Gallagher’s voice. I can see why plenty of people think he’s a great frontman but I think he comes across as a bit of tit.

 

I’m not arsed if that’s a popular or unpopular opinion and some of the music I like is far from cool. I couldn’t care less if someone’s taste in music is varied or not, people should just listen to what they enjoy.

“Merry Christmas Everybody” is boss, you bastard.

 

I’ve not listened to Oasis enough to know if they were musically influenced by The Beatles. However, Liam Gallagher has copied just about every hairstyle that John Lennon ever had.

I only listen to music that I and everyone else hates. That's what's really cool.

Exactly. It's a covers album with a shit medley and fucking Magic Bus. If you were unlucky enough to get the deluxe version they tacked on that crap opera pish too. I'm surprised they didn't disband there and then.

The search function takes forever on my phone, have we had a ‘Top 10, 15, etc. favourite albums’ thread?

There are quite a few, including your very controversial "11 Tracks per Album" endeavor.

Ha ha. Decent thread, that.
