Solo Liam was always the best course of action.

That might not be true, I know you have often said it but there are no certainties about how things might have turned out had Liam gone solo straight away. Who would he have worked with? No Debbie driving him? How much interest was there in a Liam solo project after Oasis spilt up?

Sometimes you have to go close to the bottom before you can get up again. I wouldn't change anything, so fart its all worked out pretty well.

That’s the difference. I’m viewing solo Liam in 2011 as a positive. You are looking at it potentially more negative. I’ve been strong on this party line since the day Oasis split. Demanding both brothers strike solo. I laid out the plan I wanted Liam to follow back in 2009.

- Take an extended break.

- Link up with a songwriting partner like Robbie Williams did with Guy Chambers.

- Work with a fresh young producer like Danger Mouse

It took 10 years but a lot of what I said back then eventually did happen. Staying with Andy and Gem was never a choice I wanted him to make. It was keeping the status quo but missing one huge ingredient.......the creative songwriter.

No.

Hats off to (especially) Liam and the guys that they didn't play Oasis songs in first place.

Beady Eye had a potential, especially with their second album, but all the other things which had nothing to do music got so involved with their further career at that time - Liam's divorce, love child, Gem's injury.
It's a shame that they called a day, but without Beady Eye, I don't think Liam would have been what he is now.

Liam doing that in 2010/11 to start the decade would've been an epic move to put one up on Noel and get the decade started right.

The problem was, neither playing Oasis songs nor not playing Oasis songs felt right at that time. Both options felt awkward. They were fucked.

Quite.

It was ridiculous to see Liam Gallagher and have him ignore his history.

Probably not, but one reason I really liked Beady Eye was they seemed a good bunch of lads who really got on well together.

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

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
