Oasis: Time Flies... 1994-2009 Album Review

You may not have liked their behaviour, their attitude or even their hairstyles but there’s no faulting the output of the brothers Gallagher, who have had their grubby fingerprints all over the charts since they first emerged in the early Nineties.

Pitched against Blur by the media, history shows they stand head, shoulders, waist and buttocks above the competition with classic rock tracks such as Wonderwall, Roll With It and Cigarettes & Alcohol, gathered together in a CD/DVD compilation that, according to Noel (the talented one), should replicate the Oasis live experience.

A really rather impressive catalogue of work.

VERDICT 4/5

Oasis - These Are Your Stories

A while back we asked you to send us in your stories about what Oasis and their music mean to you. We heard from thousands of fans all around the world and would like to say a big thank you to all who got in touch.

Big Brother Recordings took a small selection of these fans and filmed their stories. Each intimate portrait concentrates on how specific Oasis songs have affected their lives and are cut together with footage that you sent to us telling your story.

In amongst these short films are Italian football idol Alessandro del Piero, whose 2006 World Cup victory played out to the soundtrack of 'Don't Believe The Truth'. We also visit Stefy 'Supersonic' Bull, an amateur boxer who was inspired to turn pro after hearing 'Supersonic'; a family who came together thanks to hearing 'Don't Look Back In Anger' in a Hong Kong bar; an Italian sculptor and well known Liam look-a-like, and a prisoner who was inspired to do the right thing after hearing 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out'. Each story entertains in its own way and will no doubt strike a chord with all the millions of fans who supported the band through their eighteen year career.

'Oasis: What's Your Story?', an amalgamation of these short films, will get its UK TV premier on the 4Play slot this Saturday 12th June on Channel 4 at 23:40, showing before the acclaimed Oasis tour film, 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down'.

Also, Sunday 13th June marks the UK TV premier of the full Alessandro del Piero short film on BBC2. It will air at 22:15 on Match Of The Day Fifa World Cup highlights. It will then be available to view on the BBC Sports Website afterwards.

The full versions of the remaining stories will air online next week at the Oasis YouTube page.
