Editorial Review: Album Description: Limited Edition Japanese pressing of their sophomore album, originally released in 1995, comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. 12 tracks including 'Roll With It', 'Wonderwall', 'Some Might Say' and 'Cast No Shadow'. Sony. 2006. Amazon.com: This big rock candy mountain of an album justifies some if by no means all of the poses and pretentious statements made by Manchester's natural-born rock & roll deities. A dramatic attempt to rekindle the flames of the original British Invasion, Morning Glory rolls 30 years of Britpop tradition into one irresistible (if achingly self-conscious) whole. "Wonderwall" can be read as a Beatles tribute, "Don't Look Back in Anger" feels like a Mott The Hoople anthem and "She's Electric" and "Morning Glory" are chewy pop confections. --Jeff Bateman Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - One of the 90's top albumsMusic, like movies, tends to go into a lot of phases with many people latching onto a certain genre or artist deeming them the saviors that will rid the taste left in our mouth of the predecessors. With the drugs and excess and party-with-every-and-any-girl lyrics of the 80's metal bands, in comes the so-called "grunge" movement which was more introverted and coming from a place of hurt and angst. In comes Oasis during the so-called "Brit rock" movement which dealt with more uplifting matters like the love of rock and roll music. Sure it's derivative but who gives a you-know-what when it's a top record from top to bottom. Hello: Fading in with the Wonderwall chord progression, the song then transforms into a big rousing rock track ...

While it may not be one of the greatest albums of the Rock era, it's hard to imagine how it could not be counted in the top 50! Rating: - The last truly great rock albumMorning Glory is Oasis's best album, and one of my favorites. All the tracks are great, from Hello to Champagne Supernova. Every song is perfect Britpop, with Liam's bratty voice going perfectly with the rest of the band's instruments. The hits Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger, and Champagne Supernova are all beautiful songs, and the seven other songs sound very similar to them. All the songs have great lyrics sung suberbly by Liam and Noel, and great guitar parts by the band. Every song has a beautiful chorus' like Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger, Some Might Say, She's Electric, Morning Glory, and Champagne Supernova. This album is a must-have for all ruck n' rull fans, old-school fans, and even pop and punk fans. Rating:  - some rip offs, some unmemorable moments... some good moments tooBack in the day, Oasis wanted to be the next Beatles by attempting to write catchy, memorable songs. Sometimes it worked, but other times it clearly didn't. They certainly don't "sound" like the Beatles most of the time. "Hello"- that chorus is totally ripped off from the chorus of an old Slade song called "Far Far Away". The verse melody is alright, but the lyrics are bad. Not a great way to open a supposed classic album. "Roll With It"- annoying verse melody, good chorus. Nothing more needs to be said. "Wonderwall"- Not hooky enough to be a Beatles tribute. Yes, mentioning the words "winding" and "roads" reminds us of a certain Beatles song, but that alone doesn't make it a quality tribute song. Nah, ... Read More: Rating:  - Better than I thought it was at firstI'm well aware of the fact that I wrote a one-star review of this album at one time. I'm also aware that said review was a piece of crap, which explains why I deleted it. And while I will maintain that the title is pretty stupid, after giving it another listen I think it's a pretty good album. First, though, the bad news. I still can't stand Liam Gallagher's sneering voice at all. To be honest, I'm not even sure why they keep him around. I know he wrote a few songs on the group's more recent albums, but I've only heard two Oasis discs in my life (go ahead, guess which two!), so it's not like I'd know any of them are any good. And here's another problem: this band doesn't have one iota of originality. Everything they do is copied from the Beatles, ... Read More: |
