1. Abbey Road 2. The White Album (2nd simply because of Revolution 9 ) 3. Revolver 4. Rubber Soul 5. Sgt. Pepper 6. A Hard Days Night The rest... I'd put ...Morning Glory up there with The White Album and Definitely Maybe on a par with Revolver/Rubber Soul , for anyone that cares

i think Andy and Gem were hired for a reason - to go with the flow, basically. here's a comparison: Brian Jones was fired from the Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton was rumored to replace him, but Mick and Keith didn't wanna give up that much creative control, which makes sense, but man, that would've been interesting to hear. it probably would've eventually turned sour with all that creative input, similar to the Beatles, though. instead the Stones brought in Mick Taylor who added solos and color to the songs, just like Brian Jones did; Brian jones didn't really write any music and/or didn't come up with the genesis of any songs - Brian did the xylophone part on 'Under My Thumb' and i think he did the sitar part on 'Paint It Black', both great contributions. like theyknowwhatimean kinda said, Oasis weren't really looking for more important input and Noel probably didn't want anymore. i always thought Gem played the Ronnie Wood role in Oasis more than anything, being good for a healthy band dynamic, getting along with everyone and Andy didn't cause any drama, so all was well. someone else said in this thread said Andy and Gem were brought in to improve musicianship but that's not saying much, Bonehead and Guigs were very average musicians, especially Bonehead, he only played barre chords for christ sake. and while Noel's a great songwriter and coming up with chords, he's not the best lead player by a long stretch. I've said on the forum a couple years ago, any second year music student could play any of the parts for Oasis songs, but that doesn't mean they aren't fucking awesome songs. anyone who wants to play music i tell: get a cheap acoustic guitar, a guitar tuner and learn the parts to Nirvana and Oasis songs because the songs are mind-numbingly easy but are catchy and amazing songs. anyway, i'm rambling - it's time for my afternoon nap, the coffee has officially worn off from the morning. God bless. But I feel part of the appeal with Oasis was Guigsy and Bonehead. Let's face it - they were basically punks who were average musicians, but like punks, they had the energy and vigour to make it Watching Andy and Gem - technically maybe more proficient, but Oasis post 2000 lacked a certain energy that they had with Guigs and Bonehead. What they lacked in talent, they made up for in passion. I think some of that energy you're talking about with Guigs and Bonehead could be that the song quality was better when they were in the band. and I didn't mean to give Gem and Andy that much credit; Gem's playing's very similar to Noel's from a technical standpoint and Andy's never wowed me in Oasis or BDi. i'm not even really arguing with you - I couldn't really care less of which pair of them were in the band. at the end of the day Oasis for me is Noel's songs sung by Liam with Noel occasionally throwing in a lead vocal on a song. God bless.

27/10/2014. I have my diary open on this page. What am I writing down? First single release date from Noel's second album? He or she didn't say it was Noel related. Perhaps when you ask we'll get some remark about how it's actually just a Monday or the 300th day of the year or their birthday and was it just a trick. However, I'm not having any of this until there's proof. It is very exciting and entertaining though.

The 300th day of 2014. Write it in your diaries. My FAVORITE PJ song, and one of my favorite songs ever!

God bless. The real Oasis was 1994-1998. I can go along with this. Huge changes occurred between 1998 and 2000. New lineup, new vibe, new logo, no Owen Morris / Brian cannon. The Japanese Don't Go Away single was definitely the end of an era. Also by the time Go Let Out came out we could never get more than 2 bonus tracks per single.

Cause the albums that will stand the test of time will suprisingly be the first three despite the worst production.

i've been softening up Brian Cannon by 'liking' most of the statuses he posts on Facebook to eventually ask him more detailed information about Noel's next album...i'm just kidding, kinda.
i mentioned in the 'Noel working on something?' thread, Brian Cannon's a great Facebook friend, he accepts anyone's friend request, he posts all kinds of interesting things, including Oasis-related things.
not too long ago he posted something that Noel had said, something like, The Smurfs were keen to include versions of Roll with It, Wonderwall and Some Might Say by Oasis, but they were refused by Noel Gallagher who said, "We hated the Smurfs as kids, I'm not letting a bunch of blue guys in white hats touch our stuff and they can keep asking until they're blue in the face, but no."
God bless.

This is most likely 100% accurate, I KNOW YOURE READING THIS RIGHT NOW NOEL I've always wondered, which poster here might secretly be Noel or Liam, or even Andy and Gem. I think Beady’s Here Now is Noel. He has a secret computer in a basement, hiding it from his wife, and using it only to posting on this forum while drunk.

Until we hear some official news, I'm trusting no one. Some people here are off scale in the bullshit meter

instead the Stones brought in Mick Taylor who added solos and color to the songs, just like Brian Jones did; Brian jones didn't really write any music and/or didn't come up with the genesis of any songs - Brian did the xylophone part on 'Under My Thumb' and i think he did the sitar part on 'Paint It Black', both great contributions. Brian Jones left his touch on much more songs than those. That's apart from the fact that he was the founder of the band. Sorry for the OT!

Sorry for the OT! i used those songs as examples because they're really popular songs and parts. yeah, Brian Jones was an amazing musician but not a great sole songwriter. God bless.

I HOPE Noel's new single is as action packed as Tom Brady in a two minute drill.
