I AGREE!!

I thought I was the only one!!

I didn't see the programme.

OK Computer is a CLASSY album to be honest.

It's impossible to concoct a good top 100... that one seems to mention some very good ones but the order is messed up bad, and it's much too mainstream...

I just dont think coldplay have achieved anywhere near what oasis have achieved and whats the story morning glory is a masterpiece, parachutes by coldplay is a good album. There is a massive gulf between them.

I bought Definitely Maybe quite early on after hearing them at Glastonbury and I still listen to it now, despite going off that kind of music completely. Bought Morning Glory the day it came out and my opinion of it (and everything they've done since) is the same as the first time I heard it: awful.

To quote Misty's Big Adventure, I Am Cool With A Capital C.

Which makes us both cool :thumbup:

Plus Status Quo play in Lincoln, just like in Scarborough.

If that makes sense, I'm impressed!!

Vodka!!

2 albums in the top 15 for mighty Oasis :D :D :D

94773[/snapback]

Am I the only one who think Oasis have had a few good singles but that the rest of their album tracks are just fillers? :blink:

95369[/snapback]

No your not the only one, but there are also people out there who like every song they have ever recorded. When they recorded the first two albums their b-sides were better than most bands could ever wish to produce!! If you gave a listen to "The Materplan" which is an album of b's you'd be amazed how good it is. One of my favourite songs "Whatever" was never even released or put on an album!

The Masterplan is ok yeah... I like The Swamp Song (?) and The Acquiesce

Oasis have just been the same unoriginal band all these years in my opinion. But they at least keep the quality at the same level :rolleyes:;)
