MOJO The Collectors’ Series: Oasis Essentials presents the definitive guide to Oasis’s albums, songs, films and books. It’s in UK shops and available to order HERE
Every year, Oasis fans pose the same question: will Noel and Liam finally bury the hatchet and re-form the group? As the biggest band to emerge from the UK in the 1990s, the Manchester legends hold a special place in the hearts of those who treasured them at the time. And, in the past decade or so, their popularity has grown ever bigger, as subsequent generations have embraced the band’s timeless, Beatles-inspired music and the intrigue of the Gallagher brothers’ relentless feuding.
Noel Gallagher Interviewed: “I’m Defending My Right To Make Music That’s Not Indie Rock.”
But while we’re unable to watch Oasis perform live, we still have their sizable musical legacy to enjoy, as well as the recordings Noel and Liam have made since the group’s explosive split in 2009. But while Oasis’s first two albums, 1994’s Definitely Maybe and 1995’s (What’s The Story) Morning Glory?, are unimpeachable classics, how have their other studio albums stood the test of time? And what of their compilations, live records and overlooked gems tucked away on B-sides or released as bonus tracks?
Written by MOJO’s team of experts, Oasis Essentials provides you with all the information you need to piece together your ultimate collection. Together with an in-depth album-by-album guide – with details of expanded reissues and anniversary editions – we revisit MOJO’s interviews with Noel and Liam around the time of the original releases and put every single Oasis B-side under the microscope. We also celebrate the band’s powerful concert performances with appraisals of the Familiar To Millions and Knebworth 1996 live albums, recommend the best Oasis books and films, and bring the whole story up to date with a detailed survey of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds material and Liam’s output with Beady Eye and as a solo artist.
With dozens of iconic and rare images, MOJO’s Oasis Essentials in an indispensable purchase for all Noel and Liam fans and music connoisseurs.
