Zak Starkey; perfectly fit for Oasis May 24, 2005 9:00:27 GMT -5

I just heard the first 4 songs live on Radio One, via the website:

www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/alt/stevelamacq/gallery/oasis/3.shtml

I didn't listen to new songs, except for A Bell Will Ring, which I knew a long time.
When I heard Bring It On Down I knew it; Zak Starkey is perfectly fit for Oasis; more than Tony and Whitey.
Alan White was a great drummer, but not in the style of Oasis, though there are songs that fit him well, like "Cast No Shadow" etc.
Looks like Zak has soul in his playing, power that many drummers recognize in a great drummer.

It is not important how good you are (pointing to Alan White), but if your style suits with the sound the band is searching for.
Just like Ringo was suited for the Beatles.
He played very basic, wasn't technically speaking the best drummer on the globe, but contributed with his style to the sound of the Beatles.
Ringo Starr belonged to the Beatles the way that the Beatles belonged to him.

Starkey is a lucky man, playing with both The Who and Oasis.
Within the Who he fills the hole that was left after Keith Moon.

And now he is 'fixing a hole' in Oasis.....the rain didn't come in, the sun shines.
Turn up the sun......

i still think whitey was far better than starkey. i loved his smooth drumming specially in WTSMG and playing live he never lost the beat. anyway i think starkey is a great drummer and i like his job in the album but im a little dissapointed with his live skills. he's pure rock'n'roll and that's great for oasis but well, maybe im a melancholic.

Totally agree. Zak is a superb drummer, there is no doubt about that, but for me, he is an out-and-out rock drummer. Alan is much more funkier and looser.

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

colincarrot: Hello! I'm new here and looking to download Liam Gallagher bootlegs from here and found this thread here - forum.live4ever.uk.com/thread/86703/liam-gallagher-tour-2017-2018 - with a list of concerts but if I click on any of the links... (1/2) Sept 23, 2024 10:47:13 GMT -5

colincarrot: ...it says I don't have permission to access this thread, maybe it's because I only joined today but I'm not sure what to do, could somebody help or know what to do?

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

gottabecrazy: RKID003 was a great resource, they shared a lot there there really. I wish something similar could be up again. Sept 25, 2024 17:50:23 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5

Bonehead's Barber: spooky! Oct 17, 2024 8:13:01 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Well my Halloween theory might not have been true... I wish the banner came back in its original form
