Noel Gallagher Features On New Live Lounge Compilation Album

One of the most popular radio stations in England - Radio 1 feature many new bands each week, speak to some of the biggest bands around at the moment and are generally notorious for providing excellent music, presenters, new music and interesting features such as the live lounge.

The concept behind the live lounge is to provide listeners with especially recorded live versions of their favourite bands tracks. This was a huge success and what became even more popular was recording of artists covering other artists, some of similar style other of something completely different and unexpected.

The album is highly successful in taking familiar and popular songs and giving them a very interesting twist from the eyes and ears of other popular artists.

There are 42 tracks on this album in total featuring the more popular live lounge sessions up until late 2006. About a third of the songs are artists recording their own songs live and the other two thirds, very interesting live covers of other artists songs.

This album is very different but very enjoyable and highly listenable. There is a wide range of content, but it all runs smoothly as any album should. With such a range of content, there will undoubtedly be some songs you do not like, however there will equally be a number of songs you especially do like.

This is a must have cd, whoever you are, whatever your music taste is.

Oasis Star Noel Talks Babies And Football

He Talks Football At Son's Birth

IT looks like footie mad Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher got his priorities a bit mixed up during the birth of his new son.

Noel was playing the dutiful boyfriend to a tee when he accompanied girlfriend Sara to the delivery suite to see Donovan Rory arrive into the world on Saturday.

But the Manchester City nut soon spoiled his new man image by asking her to make sure the tot arrived before his favourite football show finished.

Noel revealed his clanger during a chat with Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles.

He told him: "I just stood there in my leather jacket, nodding and going 'It will be alright, just get it out before Soccer AM finishes'."

Noeland Edinburgh-born Sara picked the middle name Rory after the baby's 72 year-old Scots grandad.

The Boy's Don Good, Noel

Allow me to introduce Donavon Rory MacDonald Gallagher.

The little lad left London’s Portland Hospital on Monday, with dad Noel and mum Sara MacDonald.

And my exclusive snaps show he may have inherited his mum’s gorgeous looks.

The legend’s beloved Man City have already moved to add another Gallagher fan, with a gift pack of junior membership, a baby City kit and a Baby Blue On Board car sign.

A club source said: “We wouldn’t want him becoming a United, Arsenal or Chelsea fan – I’m sure his old man agrees.”

Noel's guitar made by Artist Pete Mckee, can be found here.

Description:
Acrylic and emulsion paints on fiberglass, signed by Noel Gallagher.
3100 mm by 1070 mm

The emotional impact of McKee's work cannot be underestimated - like a faded photograph found at the back of a drawer - the artist's work brings to life people, places and characters that time has all but erased. Mods, rockers, British seaside holidays, chopper bikes, working men's clubs, factory girls and teddy boys are just some of the subjects that live on in the world of Pete Mckee. Since his first exhibition in a Sheffield pub in 2005 Pete has had over ten solo exhibitions, showing in New York, London, Dublin, Brighton and Saltaire.- www.petemckee.com
Of the process the artist says:

"It was great to Have Noels direct involvement with the guitar and he was very keen to make sure all the records and bands he chose reflected his influences as a lad learning to play guitar, to the point that underneath a couple of the sleeves lie rejected choices only he and I know about."

Gibson GuitarTown London is a community art project aimed at bringing the community of London together through art, music and charitable giving. Through The Gibson Foundation, the proceeds from ticket sales to the event on Thursday, November 8th, and the sale of the guitars at auction will benefit three non-profit organizations. The benefiting organizations are: The Prince's Trust, Teenage Cancer Trust and Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy. Thank you for your generous support of these organizations by participating in the auction and attending the event.

Oasis To Release New Single In Three Weeks

The Gallaghers embrace the digital age with 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down'

Oasis have broken their vow to have a year off and will release a new single in three weeks' time.

The Noel Gallagher fronted track from their first ever digital-only release on October 21.

The song will be available from the band's website www.oasisinet.com, and comes bundled with two live songs from their City Of Manchester Stadium gigs in 2005. A video for the song will appear on YouTube from October 1, the same day the song debuts on radio.

Noel explained he felt the song was good enough to go on a album, but included it in the documentary instead. "It's good and rocking - just 12 bar blues really," he said. "It's got left off the last album as it was the same verse all the way through, but it's kind of locked into that now as it appears at the end of the film."

The song's bluesy feel reflects the Oasis leader's current listening tastes. "I probably listen to Neil Young and Bob Dylan more than any other artists," he explained before revealing how his songwriting process works these days.

"One day you hit a chord - let's say A minor, the saddest chord of all and it won't mean f**k all. The next day you're in a different head space and it will sound completely different," he said. "Usually I start with a chord on the guitar and if the first line pops into your head you realise you're going to make a fortune soon!"

Meanwhile, the DVD of Lord Don't Slow Me Down will be out on October 29. Noel explained that the documentary was an accident, as Oasis had only intended to make one video with director Baillie Walsh.

"Baillie started making a video for 'Let There Be Love' and he thought the stuff was so great he convinced us to let him come on the road for nine months, " stated Noel. "I was concerned because the years of kissing the sky and drinking champagne out of cowboy boots at 10am are gone. He just said he'd tell it like it is - and this is it!"

Noel added that a film of the 'Be Here Now' tour would have been very different. "That's the greatest thing I've ever been involved in with the band, "he declared.

"We toured the globe as the biggest band in the world and everything you could possibly want you got two of!"

Noel Gallagher Wore Leathers During Birth

Noel Gallagher reveals that he wore his leather jacket throughout his wife's childbirth at the weekend.

The Oasis guitarist told Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles that he just stood nearby and nodded while his wife was in labour with their son Donovan.

Gallagher commented: "I was there. It was all right for me but my missus was giving me a bit of stick afterwards, saying, 'You never took your jacket off all the way through!'

"I was in my leather jacket, nodding 'You’ll be all right - just get it out before Soccer AM finishes.' I think the worst thing is that you don’t have any specific role. You just stand there and nod."

As reported yesterday (September 24), Oasis are set to release their first ever digital-only single. The track will be released on October 21.

Speaking to NME.COM, Oasis leader Noel Gallagher declared that the track is not simply a throwaway song he had hanging around, but one that he was considering for an album before it got linked to the band's tour documentary of the same name.

"That got left off the last album because it was the same verse all the way until the end," he explained, "but it's kind of locked into that (the documentary) now because it appears at the end of the film."

Gallagher added that he was particularly pleased with the direction the song was taking the band.

"It's quite rocking," he declared. "It's just 12 bar blues really, but it's good."

Meanwhile the film 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down' is released on DVD on October 29.

Noel Gallagher Is The Nodfather

Noel Gallagher has talked the nation through childbirth — rock star style.

The Oasis lord has told how he just stood there nodding as girlfriend Sara MacDonold gave birth to tot Donovan on Saturday morning.

He, er, bared his soul about the experience in a Radio 1 chinwag with DJ CHRIS MOYLES.

After Chris congratulated him, the footie-mad rocker joked: “What? for being third in the league?” — a reference to Sven Goran Eriksson working miracles at Noel’s beloved Manchester City.

Speaking about the birth, at London’s private Portland Hospital, Noel added: “I was there. It was all right for me but my missus was giving me a bit of stick afterwards, saying, ‘You never took your jacket off all the way through!’

“I was in my leather jacket, nodding ‘You’ll be all right — just get it out before Soccer AM finishes.’ I think the worst thing is that you don’t have any specific role. You just stand there and nod.”

Noel, who also has seven-year-old Anais by ex Meg Mathews, added: “The baby’s called Donovan. Sounds like a man who means business.”

Noel Gallagher: 'Somewhat Predictably Our New Single Is Brilliant'

Noel Gallagher has spoken following news that Oasis will be releasing a brand new single in October.

Appearing this morning (September 24) on Radio 1 with DJ Chris Moyles, the guitarist spoke about the new release, quipping that "it's coming out on that internet".

Sharing the band's inspiration for the online release, he explained: "You know there's a DVD coming out for Christmas... somewhat predictably. The title track was so brilliant that the powers that be said 'lets just put it out'. And I'm like, 'well we're not ready to do that yet'. So, it was decided it would be a nice thing to put it out for those people who have computers."

Joking about his lack of technological prowess, he stated: "I'm not one of those people, so it's a good job I get my own copy of it, because I wouldn't get it otherwise. I've got an iPod, but Gem sorts all that out for me. That's filth, y'know?"

Meanwhile the Oasis leader also spoke about the birth of his second child, a son, at the weekend (September 22).

After Moyles congratulated him, Gallagher joked: "What? for being third in the league?" - referring to the impressive start to the season his football team Manchester City have made - before explaining he was there for the birth.

"I was there," he explained. "It was alright for me, my missus was giving me a bit of stick afterwards, saying, 'you never took your jacket off all the way through!' I was just in my leather jacket, nodding 'you'll be alright, just get it out before Soccer AM finishes'. I think the worst thing is that you don't have any specific role [as a father at the birth]. You just stand there and nod."

He added that he had named the boy Donovan Rory Gallagher after "his granddad Rory".

Gallagher added: "He's called Donovan. Sounds like a man who means business already."
