Oasis Flies To The Chart Summit

Oasis are on course for their eighth number one album this week after sales of the band's best of set Time Flies 1994-2009 outstripped sales of the next best seller by more than four to one in the midweek charts.

The Big Brother released album clocked up 23,236 sales to secure top spot in a week that has also seen strong debuts in four of the top five chart positions.

The band's last number one studio album Dig Out Your Soul reached number one in 2008, keeping up the band's record for all their albums reaching the top spot, so it's little surprise that their best of set has followed suit.

Pop Will Eat Itself: Oasis As Mass-Catering Phenomenon

As Oasis release their Time Flies... retrospective, Roy Wilkinson recalls various encounters which argues that this most patchy of British groups has much in common with cheap eat catering

Hungry for unlimited sausages? Up for endless potatoes, chipped, wedged, fried and baked? Oasis aren't the only good-time guys to have arisen in the north and successfully supplied satiation on a mass level. Recently the Taybarns all-you-eat chain has been packing them in across the high latitudes, from Barnsley to South Shields. In mildly ethnographic style, Taybarns has been fascinating the London-based media. The press have been intrigued by the "34-metre food line" and an all-inclusive £5.99 meal-deal (weekdays from 11.30am to 5.00pm). Things were perhaps similar with Oasis's initial bloom – a soft south bewitched by these brusque northerners and their mass pop provisioning. But, isn't this latest Oasis best-of a bit like Taybarns in reverse? Paying again for stuff you've already had?

Oasis and their then label Creation once really did run an all-you-can-eat spectacular. All-you-can-drink as well. The backstage bounty at Oasis's 1996 shows at Knebworth was astonishing. An immense marquee was lined with bars, all fully stocked with any drink you could imagine. A barbecue sizzled eternal. To anyone with a pass it was all free, all day. It wasn't that exclusive either. The music-industry types were diluted by numerous family and friends. You could tell this because, when Noel Gallager wandered in, he was instantly mobbed by autograph-seekers. Within this moderately-exclusive marquee, there was a separate VIP quadrant. This roped-off corner was soon besieged by people who all stood there staring at Kate Moss and Patsy Palmer.

Time Flies For Oasis Since Classic Knebworth Concerts

Britpop legends Oasis release their definitive singles collection on Monday featuring a picture from their seminal 1996 Knebworth gigs on the cover.

The Gallagher brothers, Liam and Noel, famously played two nights at the Hertfordshire stately home on August 10 and 11 in 1996 before a quarter of a million people.

And the artwork for new singles album Time Flies... 1994-2009 features a photograph taken during one of those career-defining performances at the legendary rock venue.

A statement on the now disbanded indie giants’ official website said: “There have been so many iconic gigs throughout the history of Oasis.

“From Maine Road, Wembley Stadium (both new and old!), Madison Square Gardens to River Plate Stadium in Argentina, to name a very small handful.

“But we think most people will agree that the most iconic of them all was their record-breaking weekend at Knebworth.

“2.5 million people applied for the available 250,000 tickets for those two sunny days back in August 1996.

“So it’s fitting that the front cover of the sleeve for the upcoming singles collection features a stellar shot of you the fans from those historic gigs at Knebworth.”

Time Flies... 1994-2009 is released on Monday and features 27 tracks spanning the band’s 15-year career from first hit single Supersonic from 1994’s debut album Definitely Maybe to final release Falling Down.

The album contains all eight of Oasis’ UK number one singles, as well as classic tracks such as Live Forever, Whatever, Wonderwall and Cigarettes & Alcohol.

On This Day In Oasis History...

"Shakermaker" is a song by British rock group Oasis, written by their lead guitarist Noel Gallagher. First appearing as a single, released on the 13th June 1994, which peaked at number 11 in the UK charts, it was later released on Oasis' groundbreaking debut album Definitely Maybe. It was also the first song performed by the band on the UK's world famous music program, Top Of The Pops.

Gallagher admits the lyrics are taken from the world around him, for example, a Shaker Maker was a popular toy in the 1970s, the character of "Mr Soft" was taken from a Trebour Soft Mints commercial, which featured Cockney Rebel's song "Mr Soft", "Mr. Clean" is a song by The Jam, one of Gallagher's favourite bands, "Mr Benn" is a British children's cartoon and the entire last verse - Mr Sifter sold me songs/When I was just 16/Now he stops at traffic lights/But only when they're green - was written in a taxi on the way to the recording studio to record the song. Apparently, Liam Gallagher was pestering Noel to finish the song. At this point, the taxi stopped at the traffic lights outside 'Sifter's"' (a record shop in Burnage, Manchester). Noel penned the lyric and it became part of the song. Noel used to frequent the store to buy old records before Oasis started releasing albums and Mr Sifter refers to the owner of the record store.
