Noel Gallagher: We Had To Dig Out Our Cash
Oasis Star's Claims Over Winning Abbey Road Recording Slot.
Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher claims he had to give bosses of the famous Abbey Road studios a bag of cash to let the band record their seventh album there.
The mouthy musician and his bandmates, including younger brother Liam, were banned from the London studios, the former recording home of The Beatles, after laying tracks down for 1997 album Be Here Now there.
Guitarist Noel told MOJO magazine they were informed they'd no longer be welcome after turning their recording space into a late-night party hot spot.
He admitted the rockers upset Abbey Road chiefs by "blasting out Beatles records at four in the morning" and "doing loads of drugs" so had to give them a bag of cash to record Dig Out Your Soul.
The singer also let slip he had to pinch the slot from Irish music giants U2, who he claims would take forever to decide whether or not they actually wanted the studio space. Noel said: "U2 were booked in with (producer) Rick Rubin.
"I was like, 'U2? They need to have a f***ing six-hour meeting (to discuss) whether to get tea or coffee in the rehearsal room! They are not coming in here any time in the next five years.'
"The guy from Abbey Road was like, 'I've got it block-booked for the exact time you want it.' We actually went down to Abbey Road with a bag of money and said, 'We can pay for the studio now!'"
Dig Out Your Soul is released on October 6 and before securing the Abbey Road studio Oasis borrowed guitarist Gem Archer's bedroom to rehearse in as pal Paul Weller was recording in their usual practice place.
But Noel admitted they had to rush through the initial recordings so they didn't disrupt Gem's family commitments.
He said: "We had to finish the tunes before Gem's kids got home from school. These demos were rushed and pretty sparse. No backing vocals, no acoustic guitars.
"I was looking at Gem, going, 'I'd have put trumpets on it but your kids were knocking at the door.'" Fans looking forward to the new release can expect a more "hypnotic, driving" sound.
Noel said: "I wanted music that had a groove, not following the traditional pattern of verse, chorus and middle eight.
"I wanted a sound that was more hypnotic and driving. Songs that draw you in."
There was no one available for comment at Abbey Road studios.

Gem Archer's Bedroom Served As Demo Studio
Oasis star Noel Gallagher had to rush through the initial recordings for the band's new album Dig Out Your Soul so he didn't disrupt guitarist Gem Archer's family time.
The songwriter couldn't use his regular rehearsal space because pal Paul Weller was recording there, so he decided to turn Archer's bedroom into a makeshift studio for a week.
He tells Mojo magazine, "We had to finish the tunes before Gem's kids got home from school.
"These demos were really rushed and they were pretty sparse. There were no backing vocals, no acoustic guitars.
"I was looking at Gem, going, 'I'd have put trumpets on it, but your kids were knocking at the door.'"
