Continuing a countdown of my favorite albums of 1995…
#7 – What’s the Story (Morning Glory)? – Oasis
The sophomore release by British indie rockers Oasis is a Britpop touchstone and one of history’s best-selling albums worldwide. For a brief period, Oasis was the biggest thing in the UK since The Beatles (though brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher were a much pricklier duo than Lennon and McCartney).
I’m counting down bands that typify the 90s, but if I was counting down the decade’s best albums instead, Oasis’ (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? would place high on that list.
This record is an explosion of emotional Britpop that shoots for the rafters on every track. Brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher stopped hating each other just long enough to produce one of the seminal pop records of their generation.
