Oasis: Shakermaker (1994)
The Pure Manchester.
On June 13, 1994. "Shakermaker" was released as the second single from the Definitely Maybe album by British band Oasis. Noel Gallagher wrote the verse of the song based on a song called "The New Seekers '' I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)," a song famous for being featured in a Coca ad -The 70's band. The Oasis band was sued and forced to pay $ 500,000. When asked about the incident, Noel Gallagher stated, "Now we all drink Pepsi." Liam in some live performances, has already sung the part of the reference. Noel Gallagher claims that the lyrics were taken from the world around him. For example, a Shaker Maker was a popular toy in the 1970s, the character of "Mr Soft" was taken from a Trebor Soft Mints commercial, which contained the song by Cockney Rebel "Mr. Soft", "Mr. Clean" is a song by The Jam, one of the Gallaghers' favorite bands, Mr. Benn is a British children's drawing and the whole last line - "Mr. Sifter sold me songs / When I was only 16 years old / now he stops at the traffic lights / But only when they're green "- was written in a taxi on the way to the recording studio to record the song. Apparently, Liam Gallagher was pestering Noel to finish the song. At that point, the taxi stopped at the traffic lights outside "Sifters" (a record store in Fog Lane, Didsbury, Manchester), named after people who "plowed" records and directed Peter Howard since 1977. Noel wrote lyrics and became part of the song. I used to go to the store to buy old records before Oasis started releasing albums. The song illustrates Noel Gallagher's habit of borrowing things from the past: chords are a simple progression of twelve-bar blues. The music video was filmed in Burnage, Manchester, on the outskirts of the Gallaghers' childhood home. The field on which they are playing football is Didsbury Toc H Sports Ground, in Ford Lane, Didsbury, in the south of Manchester. The album that Liam shows for the camera is Paul McCartney's 1973 album, Red Rose Speedway.
Oasis: Supersonic (1994)
The Rise of Britpop
It was the beginning of the musical revolution called 'Britpop', Oasis was one of the pioneers to venture after the ERA known as 'Grunge' that was marked after the death of Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain, after that the British industry started exporting music Massively. Within that globe, a band existed that would become one of the most important in the 90's, Oasis's debut album 'Definitely Maybe' featured as the first single, the song 'Supersonic' in 1994, was written by Noel Gallagher and recorded in a single day in December 1993 at The Pink Museum studio in Liverpool with Chris and Tony Griffiths from The Real People. The Recording Engineer was Phil Antigua, because Dave Scott, who was scheduled to record the session, went home to feed his dog. (Say that it was called 'ELZA', a dog that has reference in the letter). The band was there to record "Bring It On Down" but first, like warming up, they started playing riffs. Soon, Noel Gallagher was humming a tune over the beat of McCarroll and Bonehead until he stopped to jam when it was time to start recording "Bring It On Down." Tony Griffiths, of Real People, entered the room, informing them that his "jam" was the result of a successful album. A few minutes later, during which Gallagher wrote the lyrics in one corner, "Supersonic" was born. Noel mentioned, "Someone had Chinese or fish eaten with chips or something. I went to the back room and, oddly enough, I wrote 'Supersonic' for how long it takes to eat a Chinese meal." Tony Griffiths guided Liam through the music and provided the backing vocals. The recording was completed in 11 hours and has never been remixed. In an interview, Noel Gallagher said it's his favorite Oasis single, and he continued to play live music after the band split in 2009. Oasis recorded two music videos for release in the UK and USA. The UK version features the band playing on a roof, similar to the concert on the roof of the Beatles. Coverage is on the south side of Euston Road in London, with King's Cross station and Great Northern Hotel clearly visible across the street. The American version features views of outer space, the band in a car, large toy dinosaurs and the band playing the song in a dark room. Scenes from this video were used in the music video for "Some Might Say", the debut single from the second album (What's the Story) Morning Glory? - though in black and white. The cover shows the band and their instruments at Monnow Valley Studios in Wales. Photographer Michael Spencer discussed the cover art in an interview: "They started recording Definitely Maybe, the idea was to have a messy studio environment with amplifiers and cables scattered everywhere. Liam was only 21 years old and already seemed totally determined to have it in front of the photo, I thought it would be a good turnaround if I had my tungsten lights in sight, the idea was to put Oasis firmly in the spotlight for his first single I did cross-processing the film, which gives the photograph its blue hue. "
Supersonic (2016)
Excepcional
It is undeniable that Oasis was one of the most important bands of its generation, icons and founders of the genre Britpop or "British Pop". Oasis's legacy goes far beyond its compositions, its songs and discs released ... it transcends a song. The legacy of the guys revolves around controversies, quarrels, controversial statements and the strong, subversive, transgressing, imposing and austere personality of the Gallagher brothers, who built all this together, without passing a false image of good young men in front of the cameras and of the microphones, even with problems between them. Who is a rock band from a small state of England (Manchester). They came to do nothing at the post of one of the best and most influential bands, with one of the biggest hits with record best selling albums in the UK. I believe it to be almost impossible, a band performing something for everything Oasis has accomplished, much because of the internet as well. People do not go to shows anymore, they do not buy more discos, nowadays, any idiot with a computer at home and record a record alone. The internet is not at all bad for a music industry, of course, but it is undisputed that it is the voice of many artists, but Oasis may have been considered a last great band until the emergence of the internet. Supersonic is an inspiring, emotional, grandiose, compelling and somewhat nostalgic account of how not Manchester boys. Noel Gallagher and Liam became dismayed to this day.MAD FER IT !
