Hard to believe that it’s been 20 years since Oasis became the biggest band in Britain, and one of the biggest bands in the world. On the strength of three advance singles, “Supersonic”, “Shakermaker” and “Live Forever”, their debut album Definitely Maybe was released to the largest hoopla in England since the Beatles, coming straight out of the gates at number one. It’s not thet Oasis was really THAT great, but that they came along at a time when the British music scene needed a shot in the arm…and Oasis (along with bands like Blur) delivered. The ride for Oasis was incredible, short, and very rocky, but over their first two albums, they were at the top of their craft. Guitarist Noel Gallagher wrote the songs, which were sung and sneered by his brother Liam, and the formula created a storm of hits.
The three advance singles are excellent, particularly “Live Forever”. “Cigarettes & Alcohol” and “Rock ‘N’ Roll Star” are also great singles, but the album as a whole is very good. The only drawback is that the band didn’t really have much in the way of original ideas…you can hear bits of many popular songs on the album. But they knew how to make the recycled riffs work, and work very well. Definitely Maybe could be seen as a near perfect storm (the follow up, (What’s The Story) Morning Glory is somehow even better), a band on the verge of total greatness before the excesses of rock & roll took over and ruined them. But in the mid 90’s, there was no one like Oasis, and their first two albums are among the most exciting works of the decade. Definitely a moment to not be missed from the 90’s.

You seem to be a big Tom Petty fan. Nothing wrong with that, he's one of the great.
