Liam Gallagher gives it a rave review! Brothers' honest thoughts and drama galore!
The definitive book on all 134 Oasis songs

"This book is essential reading. No one knows more about the band, their music and their influences than Hamish and Ted." - Matt Whitecross, director of Oasis: Supersonic

Music journalists Ted Kessler and Hamish McBain, who know the Gallagher brothers "more deeply than anyone," provide a sharp portrayal of Oasis' background and the era it was created in, focusing on commentary on all 134 songs.
This is the definitive document that takes a look inside Oasis, and could only have been written by someone who had built a deep relationship with the band and its management.

From classic hits like "Don't Look Back in Anger" and "Wonderwall" to B-sides and hidden gems, this comprehensive guide explores the creative background and cultural impact of every track. Featuring interviews with the Gallagher brothers from 1994 to 2009, this DVD also includes numerous unreleased stories and behind-the-scenes footage.

What does an oasis mean to us?
