He says that he's not a great guitarist and neither a great singer. But guitar solos like Live Forever or Don't Look Back In Anger proves that he's quit amazing. Might not be as complex as John Squire but even though he is simple with his songs,the solos fits the songs and sounds great with the songs mostly.
BTW: On Chasing Yesterday he said that the first record was great but there was missing guitar solos,so the second added a couple more. I really hope that WBTM? got great solos too,and tbh hearing 4/11 songs without solos I'm starting to think that there won't be that many

My brand new EP The Wizard's Cave is out!! Check it

Or at least he used to play those. Now he's now of a solid rhythm guitarist....

Great songwriter who is able to write very simple but melodic and memorable guitar parts. Nothing too flashy, but they serve the songs well.

Also has enough of an own style.

He's good enough to have created the solos to some of the most memorable pop songs of the last 50 years. He may not be a virtuoso in the same league as Brian May or Steve Hackett, but he's definitely great.

That's it. He's obviously far from a virtuoso, but a cursory listen to 90's Oasis shows you that he had a fantastic ear for a solo.

I don't want to battle from beginning to end,

I don't want a cycle of recycled revenge,

I don't want to follow death and all his friends.

Shoutbox

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

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

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
