Released 25 years ago today. How old does that make you feel? Was probably THE album of my teens. Last year of high school, Wonderwall on the radio every 5 minutes and every f*cker was playing it. It was a good album at the time as time has gone on, bar a couple of tracks, I don't think it has aged too well.
The ramifications are still present to this day. Anyone who can get by on a guitar in their early 40's, their go to song is still Wonderwall.

Looking back I think I got taken in by all the music around then, Brit pop, Grunge etc thinking this was the music to listen to. Oasis first album is simply wonderful and everything afterwards apart from a few gems well overrated. Counting Crowe’s are still well good though.
In Kansas City I lived with a musician who used to work out Oasis songs and tore them apart. He also loved Radiohead but struggled with their drummer. Oh well.
Next door to me were a bunch of art students playing vinyl from the verve to Nick Drake and Can. At the time I’d never heard of them. I was so lost musically back then. That’s my excuse anyway and looking back it was a lot of brainwashed over hyped shyte.

Elvis died aged 42, 43 years ago.
And john Lennon has been dead over twice as long as he was famous for.
Great album though and all of their music has kept me awake on many nights trucking across the country.I saw them live several times but I only wish I wasn’t too drunk to remember them at Knebworth all those years ago. Also agree that the first album was better,especially “Slide Away”at full volume in the cab.I saw Liam live in Sydney a couple of years ago and he was as good as ever.

Forgot to mention I did buy this album and thought what was all the fuss about.
Great article in the Guardian today about Radiohead being the blackest white band. Always thought that a bit especially with the chords they use. Listened to this year's mercury prize winner Michael Kiwanuka and could here some Radiohead influences.

For some reason the year 1995 was some year for album releases
Oasis already mentioned Blur - The Great Escape Supergrass - I Should Cocoa (One of my favourites of all time) Chemical Brothers - Exit Planet Dust Garbage Pulp - Different Class Radiohead - The Bends
to name a few, what the hell was going on that year?
Anyone remember after the foray of Morning Glory from Oasis and them going on to do Knebworth and all that, the long wait for the next album Be Here Now which arrived in 97 and listening to it? In hindsight the feeling I got and can now relate to is when J.J Abrams got ahold of Star Wars.
