On This Day In Oasis History...

On January 12th 1998, Oasis released the 'All Around The World' single, it reached number 1 on the UK Official Singles Chart.

The song currently holds the record of being the longest song (9:38) to top the Official UK charts. 

Oasis wanted to make a video similar to The Beatles ‘Yellow Submarine’ for 'All Around The World'.

Directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, it took twenty four computer animators six months to complete. 

It was the last single to feature founding members Bonehead and Guigsy.

It was also the last single to feature three new b-sides due to chart rules.

Andy Bell Announces His Third Solo Album ‘Pinball Wanderer’

Ride guitarist and songwriter Andy Bell’s third solo album pinball wanderer is an otherworldly collection of intergalactic wizardry that mixes psychedelic melodies, Can-via-The Stone Roses grooves and Arthur Russell-style experimental textures.

With guest appearances from Dot Allison and Neu! legend Michael Rother on a cover of The Passions’ peerless post-punk classic ‘I’m In Love With A German Film Star’, it is perfect for both deep-listening headphones moments and cutting across the coolest, most understated dancefloors.

The loose-limbed rhythm tracks were the starting point and were laid down with the help of Andy’s old Oasis bandmate Gem Archer. The rest followed after an intense all-night session last summer, with the completed album being delivered the following morning. It’s Andy’s finest work to date; a quintessential nighttime record where you can slip through the gaps in the notes and revel in the moment.

Tracklist:
Panic Attack
I'm In Love...
Madder Lake Deep
Apple Green UFO
Pinball Wanderer
Music Concrete
The Notes You Never Hear
Space Station Mantra

The first single from the new album is called 'I'm In Love...' and features Dot Allison and Michael Rother. 

A limited edition 12" is available from here, various versions of the album are available from here.
