Noel Gallagher And Zak Starkey On Working Together On Domino Bones (Gets Dangerous)
A number of quotes from The Times interview with Mantra Of The Cosmos (Noel Gallagher was on holiday but spoke via the phone!)
Gallagher seems to be getting into the spirit of it. “Brother Zak became a magnetic force and the music was drawn to him,” he adds. “The celestial call was sent. I was compelled to answer.”
“You don’t think the words will make sense, but when you go back through them you have a song,” Starkey says. Or, as Gallagher describes Ryder’s approach, “It’s Dylan, Dali, Ginsberg and a bit of cosmic jibber-jabber. Add in Bez, who dances on the tunes like Zak plays the drums and Andy Bell plays all things stringed, and you have it.”
“Ryder and Bez say they’re up for more, but there’s a problem: the Oasis reunion. Gallagher is going to be extremely busy from June onward, as might be former Oasis members Bell and Starkey. Will they be joining?
“Better to be ambiguous, isn’t it?” replies Starkey, which is not a no.
Then I look around to see Ryder balancing a packet of pickled onion Monster Munch on his head.
